Synopsis

Spoiler shield

One laugh after another, a sparkle of jokes. In the live performance of the 95/96 season Benigni presents the program of his "Partito del Pinzimonio". A torrent of joy. From the Electoral Reform to the reform of the Ten Commandments until Benigni becomes God, gets angry looking at Italy and proclaims the anticipated Last Judgement. No one can miss the roll call: Berlusconi, Craxi, D'Alema, Prodi, Ferrara, Bossi, Fini, Sgarbi, Buttiglione... Benigni's is a terrible God, except that at each of his judgements all humanity gathered in the valley of Giosafat bursts into a thunderous laughter. Justice is done!

“Spectacular one man show by the famous Tuscan comedian, halfway between mockery and social satire, in the middle of the nineties.”
