ells the story of an archaeologist who serves as a tour guide to Mussolini and Hitler during the latter’s visit to Italy. Politically opposed to the two leaders’ ideas, he will have to confront the inner conflicts that consume him (and far more). On the eve of war, must one and can one resist? And how?
