Marcia su Roma
97 mins
in Italian with EN subtitles
ITA | 2022 | doc | dir. Mark Cousins, with Alba Rohrwacher
Through little-seen archive and his characteristically cinematic analysis, Mark Cousins narrates the ascent of fascism in Italy and its fall-out across 1930s Europe. An essay film as well as a historical document, Cousins’s The March on Rome puts history into context through the lens of the now, holding a mirror of the present to the political landscape of a creeping far right and manipulated media.
The sceening will be followed by a Q&A with director Mark Cousins
