**The Great Dictator by Charlie Chaplin (Classic Film)**
A visionary and courageous work that, through satire, denounces the rise of totalitarian regimes and the absurdity of propaganda. For the first time, Chaplin’s character, a master of silent cinema, breaks the silence to deliver a message of freedom and peace that reminds us what it means to be human. A lucid and very relevant cinema classic.

**SOME INFO ABOUT THE CINEMA IN FREEDOM FESTIVAL**
On June 19, 2025, L'ARMATA BRANCALEONE reopened the doors of the ExpostModerno arena for the CINEMA IN FREEDOM FESTIVAL 2025.
During the festival, feature films and short films will be presented for both young people and adults, and numerous meetings between authors and the public will be organized. The entire event will be laid out in a series of weekly appointments that will accompany you throughout the summer, up until mid-September.
This is an experiment in a participatory festival where associations and others come together to create a series of screenings for everyone, truly everyone, which also includes your pets. The arena is Pet Friendly as well.
We, the volunteers, will be at the arena to welcome you alongside the numerous organizations that have chosen to collaborate with us:
