Luther Blissett - Learn, Believe, Die

Overview

1994. A band of faceless artists make a fool of national newspapers... and they all go by the name Luther. In the shadows of the city of Bologna in the 90s, emerges the fake persona of Luther Blissett, sharing his name with the AC Milan striker, but it's a pseudonym. Most of all, Luther Blissett is a space that welcomes experimentations, spreading freedom in a wide network of artists and saboteurs, it is performance, demonstrations, publications, radio shows and, most of all, what today we refer to as "fake news". This irresistible documentary tells the story of the collective from which the contemporary Wu Ming was born: a visionary cultural movement who's aim was to unveil the media's hypocrisy. And that managed to do it.
