The infamous criminal reprisals on civilians. The tragic reality is almost always part of wars and Italy, in his most recent period, it has experienced during the Nazi occupation. One of the most serious in terms of size and how was the Marzabotto massacre, where the hands of German soldiers and SS in a few days were massacred about 770 people, mostly women, children and the elderly. After the happy event
de The wind blows round his independent film debut - in Italy and abroad - got fifteen awards, consistent with artistic continuity (mountain setting, interpreters from among the residents, use of dialect) Giorgio Civil Rights is a contribution of historical memory. Among other things, investing much of himself: he wrote, produced, directed, edited. Doubly good reason, given that the process to the leaders of that shameful page took place 60 years after the event.
with set and natural light, poor and ragged clothes, Rights follows a rigorous reconstruction of the first costume (the slaughter of the pig, the home birth, the stories of adults and the whole family gathered together weaves baskets) and then the events. Therefore shows how, taking advantage of the institutional vacuum and the superiority of force against the resistance, the young soldiers grew up under Hitler's regime Teutonic raid cattle, rape, remain impassive in the face of fear, pain, despair, the invocations, rake and killed at home, church, a cemetery. After this feast, get drunk, sing and dance. For a valuable educational purpose of hope against conflicts, on the EP to a background chorus of age are those green eyes of a child who has stopped talking about the general horror, survives the massacre case, save the baby brother (here it is, "the man who will") him back with him into the now empty house and starts to sing.
