Synopsis

In the 1970s, Italy was a country in turmoil, caught between progressive movements and fascist political parties whose aim was to establish an authoritarian regime.

It was in this context that a "strategy of tension" was put in place. The country was shaken by a wave of murderous attacks that shook the foundations of the Italian democracy.

Who was behind these subversive endeavors? What were the links between the far-right groups who planted bombs and the Italian and foreign secret services who manipulated and covered up those responsible?
