It's a nearly perfect example of the old adage that those who do not understand past mistakes are doomed to repeat...
...climax to the political life and times of Silvio Berlusconi. The film ends as the billionaire leader - devilishly portrayed by Moretti - is found guilty on corruption charges and makes a menacing declaration from the courthouse steps: "With my conviction, our democracy has been transformed into a regime, and all free men have the right to react against it in any way they see fit." As the fictional Prime Minister pulls away in his limousine, a mob sets the courthouse ablaze...
