MY VOYAGE TO ITALY

Francesco!

Francesco, the Germans and the Fascists are surrounding us...

My son. My son.

Francesco! Francesco!

Nina! Nina!

Nina! Nina!

Francesco! Francesco! You bastard!

Let me go! Francesco!

Let me go!

Let me go! Francesco!

Francesco!

Stop her!

Mom! Mom!

God. Forgive me, and them...

PARTISAN

- Want to make 50 lire? - No. I want 200.

- What do I have to do? - Watch the street.

Be on the lookout for the police.

We're going to mug a black man.

Look at these beautiful teeth.

Go, Joe. Go ahead. Go.

You don't scare me, you giant Moor...

because I'm white and you're black.

If you fall asleep, I'll steal your shoes.

I told you I would do it if you slept.

- Where is your home? - I don't have one!

I don't understand you.

Where are your mom and dad?

My mom and dad aren't here anymore. They are dead. The bombs. Boom!

Do you understand? Bombs. Boom! Boom!

Nicuzzo!

Nicuzzo!

What do you want? Who are you?

Are you Americans?

My son was in Licata 10 days ago.

Don't be afraid, madam. Nobody is going to hurt him.

- What happened... - You speak Italian!

Are you an Italian too?

Yes. My father is Sicilian. He was born in Gela.

Gela? I am from there too.

- What's his name? - Tony Mascovi.

- He's not from Gela. - He really is from there,

then he moved to America.

There are no Mascovis in Gela. He's not from Gela.

They come here, telling a bunch of lies and you believe them.

- Where did they put the land mines? - Along the coast...

Are you the one who knows the way through the lava rocks?

I've tried to leave the church to look for them.

They are afraid to let me go alone.

I'll take you. I know the way very well. I'll come with you.

You can't go off with these men you don't even know!

Where are you going?

Don't be an idiot!

You feel strong because you have a gun. You're all the same!

Villager, spaghetti, kids, eating, Mussolini...

Sister.

- Why did you shoot? - I saw a light.

I did see a light.

This could be a romantic spot.

If the Americans weren't here!

I was right. A real pirates' lair.

Look. There's someone over there.

What are you doing here?

- Why did you run away from the village? - Because I was afraid.

You had a date with your boyfriend, right?

Hands off!

He must be a fool not to show up.

I am right, ain't I?

There's no pulling back for us.

Tomorrow we counter-attack. They'll run like rabbits.

How cute. Can we take them to the palace, Dad?

Do you know how you can make them sing better?

- How? - With a needle. Look.

- What are you doing? - Pricking their eyes.

- Then they'll sing better? - I don't want to!

Quiet! You'll see how well they'll sing.

How can you enjoy hurting a little bird? You're bad. Naughty!

I don't want to be your son anymore. You're bad! Go away!

What do you want? Are you his mother? Or is she?

When the bell sounds the alarm in Trezza,

for those who have beloved ones out at sea, their hearts bleed.

My son, my son, my son...

Son, my son...

Mother, you see? I am back. Be happy.

Pietro, take the streetcar to Monte Sacro and wait for me there.

What are you doing? Move it!

Thief! Get him!

Thief! Stop, stop!

I just had that bicycle...

- Daddy. Daddy. - He should go to jail!

Daddy! Daddy!

Look, priest. Look!

Are you satisfied?

This represents your Christian charity, your love for the fellow man.

You can't save your accomplices. You'll end up a traitor.

We'll destroy you all. AII! Right to the last one!

You haven't spoken.

What are you doing?

- I'll kill them all! Go away! - You'll get us all killed. You, crazy!

Let me go! Let me go!

There's another dead partisan. Should we go get him?

I don't care. I am going.

- Please, come in. - Good evening, guys.

- Any news? - Yesterday, the Germans came here.

Let them look. I am not afraid.

They don't know where the Americans are hiding.

It's been three days since I've lit the fire

because the Germans will see the smoke.

- They have eyes everywhere. - They're hunting us down!

- Could you give me something to eat? - All we have is a little polenta.

- We could fill two bags. - There's an American outside.

- He's very nice. Can I invite him in? - Sure, get him.

Damn. They are shooting at Maddalena's home.

Maddalena's home?

Go to the barracks! Keep your eyes open!

Back home, they'll never know what happened to me.

It's the same for everybody.

This was happening in the winter of 1944.

At the beginning of the spring, the war was over.

This movie, filmed in Berlin in the summer of 1947,

aims to be the true and objective witness of a great city

now mostly destroyed,

where three and a half million people tried to survive a miserable existence.

Jesus, Joseph, and Mary.

Why are you leaving? Please don't go.

May I talk to you?

How beautiful. Beautiful saint of mine. I am so happy. What a joy.

You make me want to die, and that's that.

Then you can take me to heaven with you. To the contemplation of God.

You went by the village, and nobody saw you.

It makes sense. They're not trustworthy, but I am.

Know what they always tell me? Crazy people can't go to heaven.

For me?

This is heaven.

It's heaven on earth.

The crazy woman received grace.

I feel sick.

- It's the grace of God. - Yeah, grace. You wish!

You have no idea who she thinks she is.

The volcano.

What's going on?

What is it?

Cuckold!

Cuckold.

Jesus and Mary.

Jesus and Mary, thank you.

Please, protect us.

Is anybody here?

What do you need, brother?

You're so handsome!

What do you need?

- To talk to the boss. - You can talk to me, it's the same.

I want to stay with Francesco.

- What do you want to do with the bull? - I want to give it to the brothers.

Grandpa's gone crazy! This is our cow!

- Of course it's yours. - We can't just give a cow away.

You don't need him. I will take care of him.

Now that you are with us, you have to work a little more.

- Yes. I want to work. - Your relatives don't exist anymore.

You will live with the poor, and preach.

Yes. I will work, and preach.

- Was it hard to leave your family? - Sure.

What do you want from Francesco?

I want to help him and do what he does.

I am Francesco.

- This is our new brother. - What's his name?

- Giovanni. - His name's Giovanni.

- What happened to you? - Poor thing, he's cold.

What happened to you?

I gave my robe to a beggar who needed help.

You shouldn't give your robe away.

Didn't you tell me before to help the poor?

I order you to never give your robe away without my permission.

The fire is out. Ginepro! Ginepro!

- The fire. - The fire's so beautiful!

What's going on?

What are you doing?

Why have you been greedy with brother Fire?

I love it because it's beautiful, happy, stout, and strong.

Praise the Lord for brother Sun in the day, and brother Fire at night.

But, Father, the fire can hurt you.

Why do you want to hurt brother Fire?

Brothers, Ginepro can't come with you in these clothes.

- He'll cook you a nice dinner. - As you wish, my father.

- Help me out. - Of course.

What are you doing? Not those! Get some firewood.

Goodness! You put it with the vegetables!

Leave it! Let go!

What are you doing?

Beautiful Francesco.

What's going on?

I prepared meals for 15 days, so we can all go out and preach.

Dear God.

This soup is good for the mind. The chicken will warm up your body.

We won't have to worry about lunch or dinner anymore. We'll just preach.

Listen, Ginepro. Come here.

I give you permission to go out and preach.

But you must start your prayers like this,

"I go around, I say a lot, but I only do a little."

Because it's more useful to preach by examples, rather than words.

We have arrived, my brothers. It is time to separate.

From now on, each of us will go alone to preach to the world.

- Father, which way should we go? - We'll follow God's will.

How do we know what's his will?

Spin on the spot where your feet are planted, like kids do while playing.

Don't stop until you are dizzy.

- You are not dizzy, yet? - No.

- Not yet? - No.

- Are you feeling okay? - Now I feel dizzy.

Come, Giovanni. Come here.

I feel so dizzy.

Brother, which direction were you facing when you fell?

Facing Siena, just like me.

- And you, Bernardo? - Facing Florence.

- And you, Ginepro? - Facing Arezzo.

- And you, Elia? - Facing Pisa.

- And you, Ruffino? - Facing Spoleto.

- And you, Egidio? - Facing Foligno.

- And you, Giovanni? Facing where? - Facing over at that bird on the tree.

Then follow that bird because that's the way God wills you to go.

Now go, my brothers.

Travel all around the world, and preach for peace.

Tell me that you are all mine

Here, on your heart, I suffer no more Speak words of love to me, Mariú

Good evening.

Good evening, Mr. Max.

Good evening.

- Good morning, soldier. - Good morning, soldier.

It's already 1:30 p.m.!

Who's this?

- He's my partner. - Wow. Now you have a partner.

He's my brother.

- Whose file is this? - Who knows?

- Whose file is this? - I swear on my mother.

- Whose is it? - I don't know. I've never seen it.

- Sir. Sir. - What is it?

- I have to use the bathroom. - You have a bucket.

- Yes, I know, but then... - What do I care?

You're the one locked up, not me.

We didn't know anything. I swear.

Enough! Enough!

I'll tell you everything.

So?

One is Panza. The other one's Attilio. Giuseppe's brother.

You have to say that he forced you to do it.

To do what?

You have to say you knew nothing about it. Your buddy knew everything.

Pasquale didn't know a thing. It was my brother who did it all.

Good. Say that, and your brother'll end up in jail for five years.

- But the truth... - Tell that to your confessor.

At the trial, say what I tell you to.

Maggi, Pasquale.

Two years and six months of jail and a fine of 2,000 lire.

Filippucci, Giuseppe. One year of jail and a fine of 1,000 lire.

This case is closed.

The campaign against the Japanese army...

Pasquale. The sea.

Get off!

Stop, thief! Stop, thief!

- What happened? - I fell down!

Here. Clean yourself up.

What are you doing? Let's go!

Let's go look for the old man.

- Can I at least eat the soup? - Yes, but I'll go with you. Let's go.

Once I could eat like a Christian...

I'd like to go back and get some soup.

Shut up!

- Leave me alone. - What are you doing?

- Where are you going? - Leave me alone.

- Let's go! - No!

- Do you want to come or not? - No. I don't want to come.

Bruno. Let's go. Hurry up!

- What a brat! Let's go! - No!

- Why did you slap me? - Because you deserved it.

Let's go. Hurry up.

No. I don't want to come. Go away.

Hurry up. Let's go.

I'm gonna tell Mom when we get home.

I'll teach you a lesson when we get home!

Put on your jacket, you're sweaty.

Put it on.

Come on.

Would you like a pizza?

- Want some breaded mozzarella? - Yes.

Two breaded mozzarellas and wine.

To eat like that, you would have to make a million lire a month.

Eat. Don't think about it.

Do you like it?

Come in.

On the 30th, I'm gonna throw out your luggage.

You'll get an eviction notice.

Who's in my bedroom?

- Who's in my bedroom? - Why are you screaming? Be quiet!

They're very dear friends, just resting a minute.

Don't complain. You know, you're leaving at the end of the month.

Is it that easy to kick somebody out after 20 years?

Why don't you pay your old debts too?

I'll pay. I have the money right here. I'll pay!

Don't yell!

Why? Why?

I saw it, you know? Tomorrow I'll kick out you and that dog.

- I'll kick you all out. - What nonsense!

They'll lose all the clients.

Where's my dog?

The landlady opened the door and he took off.

Where were you, wretch?

I always closed the door, but she'd open it.

If they killed him, I'll kill her!

Excuse me. Is this where you kill them?

Seven people to support. Please help.

Seven people to support. Please help!

Thank you.

Stay still!

- What are you doing there? - Commander.

Commander, how are you?

I was looking at your dog. What is he doing?

He's playing. He does that all day.

He's very good.

Mr. Umberto, eat something.

What's wrong, Mr. Umberto?

I am tired.

Tired of her?

A little bit of everything.

He's small, but mean.

No, no. He never bothered anyone.

If you say so.

Why? Are you staying here all day?

I am going on a trip. I'd like to leave him here.

- For how long? - A short while.

You know, many people leave their dogs here and never come back.

- What do you do then? - I get rid of them.

- What do you expect? - Do you ever walk them?

There's this kid that we pay to do it.

We keep them here. They get used to it.

- It's enough for them. - No. It's not enough.

No, I won't leave him with you.

Daniela. Do you really love my dog?

Yes.

Then, he's yours.

You spoiled brat. Come on, let's go!

Come. Look at this. Come.

Come. Come on.

Here it is.

Up. Up.

Good, boy!

Run. Run.
