1.6. About Mr. B. (1994, the year of the first B. government)

We are in 1994, a crucial year for Italian politics: on May 10 of that year Silvio Berlusconi launches his first government, in a context of imminent economic crisis of which small Italian entrepreneurs, such as the Kellermans, are deeply concerned. Here we witness a dialogue between Michele, Emmanuel's elder brother, and some of his friends, typical exponents of the middle-upper bourgeoisie of Turin: the judgments they express on behalf of the "Knight" oscillate between doubts and hopes.The narrative voice is the image of Emmanuel reflected in the mirror. All the performers are AI.

Covers and excerpts of the following tracks can be heard in the episode:

"What The World Needs Now" and "I'll Never Fall In Love Again" by Burt Bacharach.
