The bombing of Rome is the
first example of intelligent de-
struction in 20th century hi-

civil and military targets, and
was the first aerial bombing of
an Axis power in World War II
history. With Vatican documen-
ts, archives from Italy, UK and
US, the months preceding Ro-
me’s bombardment are recon-
structed.

BOMB ROME!
In 1944 Nazis used malaria as
biological weapon in the south

infected, but the only case of
biological warfare in WWII has
remained hidden until now.
With the contribution of histo-
rians, scientists, unseen foota-
ge and documents, this investi-
gative documentary will unveil
an infamous page of history.
