About this listen

Bella Ciao: The Rise and Fall of Benito Mussolini is a scathing, cinematic takedown of Europe’s original fascist showman. From street-brawling socialist to self-anointed Caesar, Mussolini built a myth—then drowned in it.

Told with sharp prose, dark humor, and no patience for dictators, Bella Ciao walks through the rise of fascism, the illusions it sold, and the brutal consequences it unleashed. It's a cultural autopsy and a modern warning—because the monsters don’t always march in. Sometimes they wave.

This is not just history. This is the song you sing so it doesn’t happen again.
