Through little-seen archive and his characteristically cinematic analysis, Mark Cousins narrates the ascent of fascism in Italy and its fallout across 1930s Europe. Both essay film and historical document, Cousins contextualizes history through the now, holding a mirror to a political landscape of a creeping far right and manipulated media.
Marc Cousins' timely documentary comes to Haifa directly from its world premiere at the Venice Festival. The sweeping, perceptive documentary touches on 1922, when Benito Mussolini led a Fascist march from Naples to Rome, on Italy's heritage of fascist architecture, on the role of cinema, Donald Trump and more.
