PACK ONE BAG (Deep Dive): September 2024
This month we’re doing a deep dive into a single podcast: Pack One Bag. Pack One Bag is a Tribeca-winning podcast series tells the epic true story of an Italian family, split apart by love, fascism and war. When documentarian David Modigliani was a kid, his grandfather, Franco, won the Nobel Prize. But, David’s 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?
