Marco Bellocchio’s powerful film Good Morning, Night is based on the true story of the kidnapping of Italy’s former Prime Minister Aldo Moro in 1978. Bellocchio does not explore nor judge the motives of the terrorists but focuses on one single aspect of the story that held Italy in its grip for 55 days: the life the terrorists share with the prisoner, held in a small room before his assassination.
