Morte accidentale di un anarchico

Now part of the canon of Italian plays, Morte accidentale di un anarchico, in its original form, was a subversive piece of political theatre. It is based on the events of December 1969 when Guiseppe Pinelli, the anarchist of the title, fell to his death from a fourth floor window of the police headquarters in Milan, where he was being held for questioning in connection with the bomb in Pialla Fontana.
