Notable Cast:
 
None.
Duration: 1 hr, 43 min Infractions: Torture scene
Comments: The Nazis occupy Rome. The residents are starving. Many resort to theft. The resistance still maintains a strong foothold. This film follows a small group of people as they struggle through the curfews, starvation, abuse, etc.
This is a heavy hitting Italian film that shows just how bad it was in Rome in 1945. The torture scene is shocking even to this day and, I feel, a bit unnecessary. Excellent film.
