Through a very seldom seen archive and with his characteristic style of cinematographic analysis, Mark Cousins recounts the rise of Fascism in Italy, and its subsequent spread across Europe in the 1930s. A film essay and historical document at the same time, in which Cousins contextualises history and the present, holding a mirror up to a political landscape that reflects a horrific far right and manipulated media.
