Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for the curious and history buffs. If you loved The Social Dilemma or Apollo 11, start here.
The mood
Harrowing, eye-opening.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 45 min.
What might put you off
It's in Italian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

By means of a chronological arrangement of historical video material from the Istituto Luce archives, it tells the story of Fascist Italy's ambitions in Africa and the role they played in shaping fascist ideology and the stance of the fascist regime in the Western world at the height of the age of colonialism and aggressive European expansionism.
