The lives of Dominic, Salvatore and Angelo, and their struggle for a united Italy: starting from their common allegiance to the Young Italy in the early thirties, their separate and perscorsi reintrecciano during more than thirty years, through the events that lead to the political unification of Italy.
We believed is so much stuff. Tell the sprouting of a united Italy ( "Born on the roots ill, but finally unified" , in the words of the Countess of Belgiojoso), but taking the Book of Great Events from History in the margins of the narrative, almost never take on screen: everything that happens goes instead through the "filter" of the three very human characters, as in queso highlighting and enhancing the benefit of the viewer (not without some drama, but there is) the contradictions of these events, as if each scene was an allegory of the historical moment in which decreased (illustrative scenes meetings in prison, from which the farmers are excluded - "but I understand what you want, them?" ).
More. Keeping the metaphor of the tree, looking to "shoot", we can guess the origin of the "flowers" and "fruits" to come: the exalted words of Mazzini in places evoke the confessions of ex-BR or ex-NAR, the Crispi transform it turns out that Mazzini Garibaldi and finally monarchy is another of our day, ultra-conservative journalists with a past as subversive (1) and so on (2) ...
The film takes a long (almost three hours), but the brilliant and engaging interpretazioine (because, as mentioned, it is the human aspect of the events) to help get this film is not easy.
(1) role, look at 'the case, played by Luca Barbareschi
(2) And over again, impossible not to draw a parallel between the Italians around France and England to organize attacks on the heads of state ( Napoleon III) and the world situation today: the series "when we were dangerous terrorists us "
