Overview
- Event screenings run 2–4 February across roughly 200 Italian cinemas, following a series of premieres and with post-screening Q&As slated in multiple cities.
- Directed by Simone Manetti and distributed by Fandango, the film assembles court transcripts, archival material and testimony from Claudio Regeni, Paola Deffendi and lawyer Alessandra Ballerini.
- Hidden micro-camera footage from a man who met Regeni on 25 January 2016 is used to contextualize the setup preceding his abduction.
- The documentary’s narrative centers on proceedings against four Egyptian nationals presented as high-level security officers, with a ruling expected within 2026.
- Regeni, a 28-year-old Italian researcher, was found on 3 February 2016 with clear signs of torture, and reporting describes unfulfilled cooperation pledges by Egypt as Italy weighed energy and migration ties.
