In World War II Italy, four fascist libertines round up nine adolescent boys and girls and subject them to 120 days of torture.

In Nazi-Fascist Northern Italy in 1943-44, four senior members of government, aided by henchmen and Nazi soldiers, kidnap a group of young men and women. They hold them for 120 days, subjecting them to all manner of torture, perversion, and degradation.—Killerghost

Benito Mussolini's fascist Italy, 1944. In the northern Italian Republic of Salò, a Nazi-controlled puppet state, the town's four most wealthy, powerful, and decadent members--The Duke, The Bishop, The Magistrate, and The President--herd the finest specimens of young men and women into a palatial villa. Having established a set of authoritarian rules for their captives, the perverted dignitaries then plunge them into a hideous, three-part abyss of systematic degradation and torture inspired by Dante Alighieri's Inferno--the first part of the Divine Comedy. And as the sadists indulge in their most despicable vices and depraved erotic fantasies, only death can save the doomed prisoners.—Nick Riganas
