I'm Back

2018 · 92 min

A sharp, uncomfortable satire that makes you laugh and squirm as a resurrected dictator charms modern Italy.

Overview: Benito Mussolini resurfaces in Rome 72 years after his death, as if not a single day had passed. Finding a country still full of problems, both old and new, his firebrand rhetoric wins him once again the hearts and minds of millions of Italians — who see him as a wacky reenactor who speaks inconvenient truths to power.
How it feels: Satirical, dark, absurd and cynical. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Politics, media, power, corruption
Content: Strong violence. Mild gore, sexual content and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
