POMPEII’S
LIVING DEAD
INSIDE THE
SHROUD
The 86 plaster casts of the victims of Pompeii are an archaeological evidence unique in the world,
but many of them severely deteriorated over the ye- ars. Thanks to new techniques and cutting-
edge technology, a team of experts is restoring theprecious casts, trying to bring the victims of the
devastating eruption to life for a second time.

A surprising investigation that deals with
the many enigmas of the most famous and
controversial relic of all time: the Shroud of
Turin. Historians and biblical scholars are
questioned together with men of science and
university lecturers who have discovered how
Science does not allow to liquidate too easily
the Shroud as a simple “medieval fake”. Has
the “Holy Linen” really wrapped the body of
Jesus Christ after the Crucifixion? No one can
say that for sure, but the story of the Gospels is
surprisingly reflected in the fabric and stains of
the Shroud. Not only that: the most advanced
research also says that the image of the Man
of the Shroud could not be easily reproduced
even today. But then, what secrets continue to
be hidden “Inside the Shroud”?

SWORN ENEMIES:
ITALIAN FREEMASONRY
AND THE FASCISTS
Fascism is a story made of violence,
repression, political agreements and
contradictions.
But almost a century after the rise
to power of fascism, there are still
aspects shrouded in mystery. For
the first time, we tell the story of the
ambivalent relationship between
fascism and Masonry, revealing the
anti-Masonic obsession developed
by Mussolini and the violent repression
that ensued. During the fascist
regime Freemasonry was outlawed,
for the first time in Europe. Its
temples devastated and its members
persecuted, arrested and killed.

LEONARDO, THE MAN
WHO SAVED SCIENCE
Leonardo was an extraordinary artist and
inventor. But researchers have discovered, in
ancient manuscripts, drawings and treatises that
prefigure many of his inventions. Coincidence or
plagiarism? Or was Leonardo a savior of long lost
information? This is the story of the making of a
scientist who sought out scientific knowledge lost
to Europe in the Dark Ages and helped launch a
new scientific age.
