A new documentary film details the violent world of young Italian neo-fascists.
“Nazirock,” directed by Claudio Lazzaro, shows fans chanting and giving the fascist salute at concerts by neo-Nazi bands extolling street violence.
The 75-minute film includes interviews with members of neo-fascist groups, and shows footage of extremist rallies and clashes between right-wing soccer hooligans and police.
“Nazirock” will be released on DVD on April 3 — 10 days before Italy’s general election.
The Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera posted clips of “Nazirock” on its Web site, www.corriere.it/politica/08_marzo_21/nazirock_documentario_24efb340-f781-11dc-b233-0003ba99c667.shtml Also see www.nazirock.it.
