 🎬 A Cimino Confidential  

Pier Paolo Pasolini was a poet, filmmaker, and political lightning rod—and his murder in 1975 remains one of Italy’s most unsettling mysteries. In this episode, we revisit the night of his death and the official story that never quite added up. We also explore the legacy of Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom, Pasolini’s final and most controversial film, and how its brutal imagery and political allegory continue to provoke debate. Was Pasolini targeted for his art, his activism, or both? The answers lie in the shadows he left behind.  🎙️
