IL DELITTO MATTEOTTI THE ASSASSINATION OF MATTEOTTI<br />

Florestano VANCINI<br />

This film explores the events surrounding the assassination of Mussolini’s<br />

chief political opponent, socialist Giacomo Matteotti (1885-1924).<br />

Matteotti was outspoken in his opposition to Mussolini and his principles.<br />

Because the investigation of the assassination by an honest judge<br />

climbed up the rank and file of government officials and ultimately pointed<br />

directly to Mussolini himself, it made his political base very shaky,<br />

and he moved from constitutional government to dictatorship.<br />
