In Italian with English subtitles. Also known as The Moro Affair.
Widescreen. In 1978, Italian politics were thrown into turmoil when the Christian Democratic president Aldo Moro (played here by
Gian Maria Volontè) was executed. This gripping political drama is based on American journalist Robert Katz's non-fiction book
Days of Wrath and documents the convoluted chain of events that lead to Moro's death. Moro was the first politico to bring his country's political factions together in 40 years. His ordeal begins shortly after he is elected. He is en route to church with his five body guards when they are ambushed by radical communist terrorists, the Red Brigade.
Il Caso Moro was extremely popular in its native country, but it also sparked considerable controversy for as the case unfolds, nagging doubts and holes arise that infer that perhaps the government had more of a hand in the assassination than the Red Brigade.
