Il pugile del duce (2017)
He was the best. He was everybody's favorite. He was the European champion. He was Italian. But Leone Jacovacci wound up being none of the above. Because he was a black Italian. An unsung yet extraordinary tale about a fight in the ring postponed for 90 years: a fight against racism.
