Inspired by Kenneth Anger's book "Hollywood Babilonia", the film tells the story of Italian Cinema in the 1930s and 1940s, exploring the relation between sex and power under the shadow of Fascism. Combining archive materials and interviews, CINECITTA BABILONIA has a unique point of view--between history and gossip--of the beginning of what we know as "Hollywood on Tiber".
