Rome — A new documentary about Benito Mussoliniexamines the near cult-like fascination that many Italians had with the fascist dictator – and how his body became a focus for the fixation.

In , Benito Mussolini goes to Milan to talk with Archbishop Alfredo Ildefonso Schuster to request his help in escaping from Italy.
