Beppe Grillo

In many Western democracies, trust between the people and the politicians are at a low point while populist movements are on the rise. In Italy, Movimento vows to send all politicians home and bring the people to power. They win a stunning 25% of the vote, but what happens when political ideals meet parliamentary reality? Can you be uncompromising and democratic at the same time? Are internet referendums direct democracy or faceless mob rule? The film follows this democratic experiment

Α few years after the Fall of the Berlin Wall, an unknown physicist from Eastern Germany, who was not interested in politics, is the most powerful woman in the world. Her teacher in the small town where she grew up remembers that she was the smartest student he ever had. Those who have worked with her claim that “Merkiavelli” exercises power without moral barriers, just as Machiavelli taught. A journalist, who knows her well, claims that she uses the methods of a Mafia godmother. In 2008, the German Chancellor was asked to handle the international financial crisis. The countries of the South were placed in the test tube. “If I had to write a book on the Shock Doctrine at this moment,” says Naomi Klein, “it would be on Greece.” How did Merkel manage to impose German hegemony in Europe?

Italy is madness. Our employees in Parliament are in a madhouse. Among them they understand, but they do not know what reality is. They mixed up their private interests with party. The future are nuclear power plants, incinerators, parking lots, bridges on the close, the tunnel in the Susa Valley, DTT and the judiciary on a leash. They have delusions to "Veltrusconi". The call dialogue partners positions. We depend on foreign countries for energy and not exploit renewable. We depend on foreign countries for food goods and we destroy the wheat fields. We have one of the biggest public debts in the world and give five billion Euros to Libya. Egypt imports from Ukraine bread and we Chernobyl. Russia threatens nuclear retaliation for Georgia and the American nuclear bases with 90 nuclear warheads we have at Ghedi Torre and Aviano.

영화는 줄리오 안드레오티의 삶을 연대기 순으로 그리거나 각 사건들을 친절하게 설명하지 않는다. 대신 주요 사건들을 간략하게 묘사하고 안드레오티의 모호한 행동들을 더 자세하게 보여주며 그의 복잡한 내면을 포착하려 한다. 영화의 시작과 함께 1978년 좌파혁명단체인 붉은 여단이 이탈리아의 전 총리 알도 모로를 납치해 몸값을 요구했다가 당시 총리였던 줄리오 안드레오티가 이를 거부하자 알도 모로를 살해했다는 정보가 자막으로 등장한다. 그리고 영화는 다음 장면에서 구체적인 맥락을 알려주지 않은 채 암살로 사망하는 사람들을 연속적으로 보여주며 안드레오티의 정치 인생이 피로 얼룩져 있음을 보여준다. 줄리오 안드레오티는 총리와 장관을 여러 번 거친 거물 정치인이다. 그는 정치적 동료들과 함께 작은 방에 모여 앉아 항상 누가 누구의 편인지 대화를 나누며 자신의 정치 권력을 공고히 한다. 그 와중에 안드레오티의 심기를 거스른 것으로 보이는 사람들은 계속해서 암살을 당한다. 한편 검찰은 안드레오티와 마피아의 연관을 본격적으로 조사하기 시작한다. 즉 안드레오티가 정치적 반대편을 제거하기 위해 마피아와 손을 잡고 암살을 사주해왔다는 것이다. 결국 각각 다른 혐의로 재판들이 열리지만 그는 모든 혐의를 부인하고 증거 부족으로 재판들은 하나둘씩 기각된다.

The V2-Day (short for Fuck-Day and resumed in the symbol V of V for Vendetta ) was a popular initiative on 25 April 2008 at the initiative of the comedian and political activist Beppe Grillo to collect the signatures required to hold three referendums . The referendum questions concerned the abolition of public financing to publishing of the ' Order of Journalists , and the Gasparri law . [1] The initiative, organized under the slogan Free information in a free state and held in 500 squares in Italy and 'abroad, she recalled in the name of V-Day , which was organized by the same Grillo in September 2007 for the collection of signatures needed to present a draft law of popular initiative .

On 14 June 2007 Beppe Grillo launched the idea of Vaffanculo Day (Fuck-off Day), or simply V-Day, a day of public mobilization for the collection of signatures required to submit a law of popular initiative that seeks to introduce preferences in the current electoral law and to prevent the nomination as Parliamentary candidates of recipients of criminal convictions or of those who have already completed two terms in office. The meeting was held in Bologna. The choice of the name of the event, V-Day, had a threefold reference: the first to the landing operation (D-Day) of the Allies in Normandy during World War II, to symbolize how Italian citizens would "invade" bad policy; the second to the motion picture "V for Vendetta" (whose symbol is also referred to in the logo of the movement) which the movement refers to often with its principles of political renewal; the third to the interjection "Fuck you" given to bad policy.
