A documentary by Erik Gandini could help to understand social changes occurred in Italy during the last 30 years and exemplify what is called "conflict of interests". Rai, in fact, has refused to broadcast the trailer of the documentary, significantly titled Videocracy.
According to an article published by newspaper "la Repubblica", Domenico Procacci (Fandango) said the documentary is not an accusation against Mr Berlusconi (even if the nowadays Italian Prime Minister had an important role in the change) but a story which recounts how Italy has changed during the last three decades and how the system of commercial televisions has produced this change. It is what filmmaker Nanni Moretti describes as "the creation of a system of untrue values".
