Through little-seen archive and his characteristically cinematic analysis, Mark Cousins narrates the ascent of fascism in Italy and its fall-out across 1930s Europe. Both essay film and historical document, Cousins contextualizes history through the now, holding a mirror to a political landscape of a creeping far right and manipulated media.

Adam Solomons indieWire Cousins entertainingly brings history, cinema, and the manipulative power of the movies together in just the way we’ve come to expect from him. If you’re at all intrigued by a movie called “The March on Rome,” you won’t be disappointed. Rated: B Aug 31, 2022 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian The eloquence of this film is invigorating – and educational. Rated: 5/5 Aug 31, 2022 Full Review Stephanie Bunbury Deadline Hollywood Daily The March on Rome is about the growth of European Fascism. Obviously, it has plenty of substance. It is also admirably disciplined. Sep 21, 2023 Full Review David Walsh World Socialist Web Site Cousins makes only a fleeting reference to World War I and no mention at all of the wave of militant strikes that erupted in postwar Italy, culminating in the mass occupations of factories and shipyards in 1920. Rated: 2/4 May 27, 2023 Full Review Guillem Martinez Oya Cinematismo A great lesson of film history through a fascism movie called ‘A noi’. To educate the looking of our sight is important.
