Viva Zapatero!
In November 2003 Italian satirist, Sabina Guzzanti directed and was featured in the first and only installment of Raiot, a late-night TV political satire show broadcast on RAI-3. After lampooning Italian Prime Minister Berlusconi, Guzzanti was sued by Silvio Berlusconi’s Mediaset lawyers for “lies and insinuation” and the show was pulled amid controversy.
In Viva Zapatero! she presents her side of the story. The film was the sleeper hit of the 2005 Venice Film Festival where it received a 15-minute standing ovation.
And now the film is available on Amazon, in English and Italian with subtitles where necessary.
