Join us to discuss a deep dive into a Tribeca-winning podcast series Pack One Bag by documentarian David Modigliani. A true story of an Italian Jewish family, split apart by love, fascism and war during Mussolini. When Modigliani was a kid, his grandfather, Franco, won the Nobel Prize. But, Modigliani has always been more fascinated by the love story that made it possible — his grandparents’ romance on the run from Fascist Italy. When he digs into their story, he uncovers a darker side to their fairytale escape: a brother left behind to face the Nazi occupation and startling personal connections between his family and Benito Mussolini. In Pack One Bag, he returns to Italy to investigate his family’s past, carrying a pressing question: if Fascism takes over your country, do you stay or do you try to flee? And what happens if you can’t?
