Шаблон:Italictitle Шаблон:Infobox film 12 dicembre, also known as Dodici dicembre (eng. December 12th), is a 1972 documentary film directed by Giovanni Bonfanti and Pier Paolo Pasolini (uncredited).[1][2]
It is an independent documentary about the Piazza Fontana massacre and the death of anarchist Giuseppe Pinelli.[1]
Content
The documentary, through various interviews conducted throughout Italy, analyzes some episodes concerning the political climate of the country. Among those interviewed, in addition to the many workers and militants of Lotta Continua, there are also deputy Achille Stuani, member of the Italian Communist Party; Licia Pinelli, Giuseppe's widow, and several lawyers including those of Pietro Valpreda.[3]
Production
Development
The film was made by Pier Paolo Pasolini on the proposal and with the collaboration of some militants of Lotta Continua, a formation of the communist-oriented far-left.[4] During the making of the film, there were creative differences between the well-known director and the group's management.[4] Pasolini wanted to make a denunciation film enhancing the anthropological and social aspect of the country during that period.[4][5] The disagreements continued throughout the editing phase.[4]
