Abstract

"Cinema Is the Strongest Weapon examines how cinema was harnessed under the rule of Benito Mussolini as a political tool by both the reigning fascist regime and those who sought to resist it. Drawing incisive parallels to contemporary debates around race, whiteness, and authoritarianism, Lorenzo Fabbri presents an urgent view into the broader impact of visual media on culture and society"--
