In July 2001, during the G8 summit in Genoa, over 200,000 protesters clash with police, leading to the death of a young activist named Carlo Giuliani. The police subsequently raid the Diaz high school where around a hundred people, mostly unarmed students and independent reporters, had taken shelter. What follows is a night of police brutality, with those present subjected to violent attacks using batons and shameless humiliation upon arrest.
Directed by Daniele Vicari in 2012, 'Diaz - Don't Clean Up This Blood' is a dramatic retelling of the true events surrounding the G8 summit protests in Genoa. The film focuses on the night raid on the Diaz high school, an incident that was deemed 'the most serious breach of civil liberties in a democratic Western country since World War II' by Amnesty International.
