The Eagle Pictures home video releases of September 2021
Giovanni Comini has just been promoted federal, the youngest that Italy can boast. This is how he wanted his mentor, Achille Starace, secretary of the Fascist Party and number two of the regime. Comini is immediately summoned to Rome for a delicate mission: he will have to supervise Gabriele d 'Annunzio and put him in a position to do no harm. Yes, because the poet, the national poet, has recently appeared disappointed, and Mussolini fears it could damage his imminent alliance with Hitler's Germany. But at the Vittoriale, the political plan of which Comini is only a small executor will begin to lose its solid contours and the young federal, torn between loyalty to the Party and fascination for the poet, will end up seriously endangering his career. .
