Starting from the trial of former Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi, the book revisits the life and unresolved death of Imane Fadil, an Italian-Moroccan model and aspiring sports journalist who became a key witness. She testified about abuse of power and the exploitation of women at the so-called Bunga Bunga parties at his private residence in Arcore, and died in suspicious circumstances in 2019, weeks after announcing a book about the affair. Archival materials and personal photographs taken in Fadil's home in Milan are combined with AI to recreate the missing images she described in court, for which no visual evidence exists. The book deconstructs the propaganda magazine of the same name once published by Berlusconi and builds another memory from digital rubble.
