The documentary on Giulio Regeni, an Italian scholar kidnapped, tortured, and murdered in Cairo ten years ago during the regime of Abdel Fatah al-Sisi, has been banned from receiving public funding by the Italian Ministry of Culture, provoking fierce debate. Despite having already been released in theaters and winning the Nastro della Legalità 2026, the documentary "All the Evil in the World" was deemed unsuitable by the Ministry's commission, who stated that the work does not meet artistic quality criteria and does not depict Italian reality. The choice was heavily condemned by producer Domenico Procacci, who called it a "political" rather than creative decision. The title refers to Regeni's mother, Paola Deffendi, who claims to have seen "all the evil in the world" in her son's face at the moment of identification. The documentary reconstructs the judicial process by incorporating the testimonies of his parents, Paola and Claudio, who have maintained international attention on the pursuit of the truth in recent years. The exclusion from the funds has prompted requests for explanation in Parliament. The opposition wants to know what criteria caused the ministry's committee to deny the film even a portion of the 14 million euros set out for films deemed important to artistic, cultural, or national identity. Meanwhile, two members of the Ministry of Culture's commission for selective contributions to cinema have resigned.
