In post-Fascist Italy, Luigi Nono attempted to reverse the darkness of Mussolini and rescue art from being the handmaiden of the state. His one-act opera Intolleranza 1960 speaks out against dictatorship. It follows an emigrant worker traveling home as he gets caught up in a political protest, is tortured in prison, and escapes to fight for a world without war.
