Official narrative
Allan Francovich's use of primary sources has made the film a difficult one to deny. It is remarkable that it was broadcast, in full, on UK television - and a credit to the BBC, on BBC2 in 1992. The official narrative has been to ignore it, as with other such challenging exposes such as Gary Webb's Dark Alliance. It will be noted that Francovich himself died suddenly while going through customs in a US airport 1995.
Structure
The film was produced in three parts:
- The Ring Masters - Origins of Operation Gladio in Italy
- The Puppeteers -
- The Foot Soldiers - Belgium (Brabant Massacres), Murder of Aldo Moro
Characters
The film features extensive interviews with Vincenzo Vinciguerra, from his jail cell in Italy, and around 40 other people involved with Operation Gladio. Vinciguerra supports Fedricio Umberto D'Amato's claim that he founded the Club de Berne. After Vinciguerra, the second most frequent speaker in the film was senator Libero Gualtieri, who headed up The Italian Parliamentary Inquiry into Operation Gladio.
Radio Adaptation
In 2015, the film was adapted for radio by the Unwelcome Guests collective.
