Il Divo (Divo: La straordinaria vita di Giulio Andreotti, Il)
Giulio Andreotti has been elected as Italian Prime Minister seven times since the 1946 establishment of Parliament. This witty and striking biopic centres on Andreotti's seventh government, where accusations of Mafia links and scandal lead to his ultimate downfall. As one of the most influential figures in Italian politics, Andreotti's conflicting public status - a great politician and a shrewd, impressive man on one hand, an accused conspirator and murderer on the other - is reflected in his wife's confusion over his identity and the system's confusion over its own. Paolo Sorrentino puts a stunning frame around this most untouchable icon of politics.
