Synopsis

During the Allied invasion of Italy in WWII, six stories unfold in various regions, from Sicily to the northern Po Valley. These tales follow the interactions between American soldiers and Italian civilians as they navigate their way through language barriers and cultural differences.

MUBI's take

Regarded by Martin Scorsese and others as a pivotal milestone of Italian neorealism, Roberto Rossellini’s episodic masterpiece chronicles the arrival of Allied troops, and the cultural collisions that followed. Mixing documentary and fiction, these vivid vignettes scale the untold human cost of war.
