Buongiorno, Notte

Directed by Marco Bellocchio

Based on the 1978 kidnapping of former president Aldo Moro by Red Brigade members, this award-winning, powerful drama captures the turmoil and uncertainty caused by the crime and the following 2-month ‘negotiations’. Told through the eyes of a young woman confused by her sympathy for their victim and her loyalty to her fellow militants. ***This screening will be introduced by Nicoletta McGowan, Senior Lecturer in Italian at Manchester Metropolitan University***
