Description

This documentary aims to pay tribute to the Allied forces, both English and American, who liberated Rome. Germi’s participation inMontecassino, which occurred around the same time, may have influenced this project. Alternatively, it could be seen as an expression of gratitude towards the Allies, celebrating the historical and cultural bond that had united English and American intellectuals with the Eternal City since the 18th century.
