Political Backlash Over Documentary Funding Denial

An investigative documentary titled “All the Evil in the World” delves into the tragic murder of Giulio Regeni, a leftist Italian graduate student who was tortured to death in Cairo in 2016. The film claims that Egyptian secret police were involved in his death.

This documentary has triggered considerable political controversy in Italy, particularly due to the government's decision to deny it funding from a designated commission. This denial has raised concerns about artistic freedom and the state's stance on human rights abuses.
