We Want Everything

We Want Everything

"We want Everything", it's a comic book based on the book of the same name by Nanni Balestrini, published in 1971 in Italy.

Struggles that marked the beginning of nearly a decade of labor and youth demands and struggles that were expressed in Italy largely through the Autonomy movement.
