Focusing on the 1978 kidnapping and assassination of Italian Prime Minister Aldo Moro, this dramatic monologue reflects on the political and social ramifications of that national trauma. Commissioned for Italian television, it serves as a poignant self-examination by Marco Baliani, revealing the complexities of his generation's involvement in Italy's political decline. Having evolved through numerous performances since its debut, the English translation captures the essence of the original while addressing audience reactions and updates to the text.
