Colpo al cuore

Program Autofokus
Colpo al cuore -morte non accidentale di un monarca, 2010. Italien. A documentary film by Teleimmagini. Italian with English subtitles.

Colpo al cuore -morte non accidentale di un monarca, is a not usual historic documentary. The interviews and the analysis of the movie have two different directions. The first is to go over Gaetano Bresci’s life and the regicide of Umberto I with the clear intention to speak about this character, forgotten by the history books, and to analyze the hard Italian context in umbertian age. The other is the political analysis of the act: the will to redemption, the individual action beyond the propaganda act, the impossibility to stay unarmed in front of cruel injustices. An action that we can contextualize also in our time, beyond kings and powerful men. An action lives in everyone who has, as Bresci had, the revolutionary strength to say ‘that’s enough’ and to overthrow a symbol.
