Piazza Fontana: The Italian Conspiracy

As a Greek i am very familiar with Italian politics. As i was born in late 70's, i was familiar with the chaos of those years from an early age. I strongly suggest to all young people, unfamiliar with the lead years period of Italy, to study the matter. The lessons from that era are extremely valuable. Because they clearly show that no matter what one believes regarding politics and ideology, at the end only two truths remain. A-everyone outside the state, is a puppet of the state. B-the state always wins. The lead years was a chaotic period with countless victims. Most of them, innocent. In the surface, many people think that Lead years means neo fascists and far leftist terrorists, causing havoc. But the truth is that the main actor, was the Italian state.

Italian state and deep state, Italian secret services, Carabinieri, Army officials, NATO, CIA, politicians, are all guilty, or to be more fair, they all have among them guilty people, who should be accused long before any low level neo fascist or any anarchist. This is known to almost everyone living in the Mediterranean European countries. We know our history and we will not forget the innocent who were butchered.

The movie is centered around the Piazza Fontana bombing and as political thriller, it achieves both purposes. It informs and it is entertaining as well.

The director did only what he had to do and he did it good, and the actors are all excellent in their performances. The recreation of that era is perfect.

Watch it and then do some research about the Lead years.

History repeats itself.
