The Great Ambition
Directed by Andrea Segre
Produced by Jolefilm, Vivo Film
A sobering historical drama about a visionary Communist leader's failed attempt to reshape Italian politics, framed by assassination attempts and geopolitical intrigue.
Secretary of the most influential Communist Party in the Western world, Enrico Berlinguer challenged the international balance by seeking to bring the Communists to government in Italy and achieve socialism in a democratic country. From 1973, when he escaped an attack by the Bulgarian secret services, to the assassination of his main ally Aldo Moro in 1978, not forgetting his trips to Moscow and the covers of Time: the story of a man who wanted to change the world, but failed.
