At its best when depicting the quiet solidarity within the farming community, this sophomore effort by Giorgio Diritti has difficulty assembling its interesting vignettes into a cohesive narration.
Overview
A group of Italian villagers struggle to survive during a tumultuous time in 1943, debating how much assistance to give the partisans with the impending arrival of the Germans. Based on True Events.
