ASSALTI FRONTALI – A TALE OF RESISTANCE

by Paolo Fazzini, Francesco Principini

SYNOPSYS

2023 marked the 50th anniversary of the birth of hip hop culture and rap music in the United States. ‘A tale of resistance” celebrates the band that first recorded an Italian rap album in 1990, Assalti Frontali, which is one of the representative and pioneering groups of politicized rap in Italy. After more than thirty years, the band’s leader Militant A (real name Luca Mascini), is still the same and he tells his story as never before, portraying his human and artistic parabola, rooted in the history of Italy, in the world of antagonist autonomy and student movements, faithful to his ideals, dreams, the irrepressible desire to make music and the will to change the world. Even today.
