Torino @ Berlino: Europa Centrale [Central Europe] [OmeU] It, 2024, R: Gianluca Minucci mit Paolo Pierobon, Tommaso Ragno, Catherine Bertoni de Laet, 87 Min

The life of exiles under fascist regimes was marked not only by ideological fervor but also by loneliness, anguish, and paranoia. Similarly, the dogma of real socialism, built on the lies that led to the brutal executions of Chekists, the horror of the Holodomor, and the Stalinist purges, allowed no room for any form of divergence, thus dragging the psychosis of dissenters and every militant into its darkest and most predatory stage. Central Europe became the focal point of this abomination in its most destructive and ferocious form.
