ALL THE RENAULTS IN THE WORLD

A mythic brand, three iconic cars, and three dead bodies inside the Renault’s trunk : the American actress Jean Seberg, the Italian politician Aldo Moro, and the French CEO of Renault, Georges Besse. Here are the starting points of Declan Clarke’s film, from where he deploys a larger narrative and reflexion on the intricate relationship between capitalist development, the supression of industrial policies and the expansion of privatisation, as well as the implication of international secret services and underground political networks.
