Résumé
Italian fascism was one of the first promoters of cinema as information and propaganda agent. Its ability to catch the soldier deeds or the political speeches, enforce in it the qualification of “arma più forte” (strongest weapon) as the same Duce, Benito Mussolini, has said. Among the films produced by Italian fascist regime, a special mention could be dedicated to conflicts as Spanish civil war, Abyssinian conquest and the creation of Italian Empire. However, less known is the post-war film productions related with the political and ideological relations between Franco’s Spain and fascist Italy. The eye of the cinegiornale Luce camera kept the attention on the Iberian case, with the idea to celebrate not only the authority represented by the Caudillo, but also emphasize the consolidation of a new fascist State in Europe.
