Il Quadrilatero

Tourist attraction · S. Petronio

Stanley meets Mattia Santori at this food market in Bologna's historic city center, to discuss the Sardines, Santori's grassroots political movement that opposes Matteo Salvini and the growing right-wing populist party in Italy. "Sardines" come from the Italian expression "to be packed like sardines", which the movement embodied in a large 20,000 rally in Bologna's city square to oppose Salvini.
