Bella!

- Where is it? Here? - Further away.

- Sure? - Under the tree, I remember exactly.

- Exactly? - We buried them here.

This is all?

Yes, all Svoboda weapons.

Pistols, submachine guns, German weapons.

And a box of grenades.

One grenade costs 50 liras.

- Who will we sell it to? - He knows.

- And how much will we earn? - We will divide everything equally.

Dig it up.

- Where are you going? - Dig!

Look there! Don't get lost!

Do I look like a cretin?

No.

Bella.

Stop!

- We can’t! - Step on the throttle! Come on, come on!

- Bella, lie down! - Lie!

After them! Alive!

- Faster, faster! - Yes, I'm going! Don't you see?

Bella, lie down! Hurry!

- Press! - Faster!

I'm trying to!

They're catching up! Come on! Step on the throttle!

Nino! Gun.

I'm stepping on the throttle!

Faster! Speed ​​up!

- They're shooting! - Throttle!

They're shooting!

Libero!

- The libero was killed! Nino, shoot! - Crap!

Faster! Faster!

Brakes!

Guys, the brakes are stuck! I can not stop!

LA STORIA Episode 7

Bella!

Quiet, don't wake Nino.

Useppino, will you go to school with mum?

- What to do there? - At school? A lot of everything.

And they write poetry too. You'll be there with other guys.

You will learn to read.

Do you remember this? Come here.

Look at the letters, you and I have already learned them.

- Good morning! - Quiet, coffee first.

- I made a cupcake. - Give it to me.

Delicious.

What is your obsession? Leave him alone, he's five years old.

They gave me a first-grader who would come with me so that he wouldn’t sit alone.

And I always sat. Besides, Bella is at home.

Should he sit with the dog all morning?

Did you hear what she called her?

You, such a miracle, who is smarter than all people combined - and a dog?

- By the way. About school. - Don't start.

No, I'll start. Come here.

We will not. Don't forget to knock.

Everything is mine there.

- What do you want? - You know.

Where do you get money from?

- Not needed? - Needed. That's why I'm nervous.

Where do you go all the time? With whom? Nino! I care about your future.

No, it's me who has to take care of you and Useppe.

You need education.

Who needs these diplomas? I'm already smart, mum.

Smart? Maybe then you’ll at least get a school certificate?

But I’m no longer a schoolboy!

You're so smart. You only need to try a little.

Just a year to study. After the war, everyone studies again.

The war was a farce, Mum.

And no one will return to normal life. It's foolish to hope!

We, still just children, were given real weapons into our hands.

And now we won't stop. We'll show them all!

What weapon? Didn't the Americans demand that he surrender?

- How do you know? - Everyone knows that.

We won't give up anything.

- We are a generation of violence. - Fool.

Mum, don't you see how wonderful life is?

Nino!

- I'm coming! - Come on down!

I'm coming!

- Where are you going? - Found a place to live with Bella.

- Don’t you want to come with us? - I have my own life.

And I?

And you... write a poem for my return.

Bye, mum.

You need to listen to the part, Nino!

Remo, I respect you because you are old and smart.

But I asked you to help with the move, and not to lecture me.

I'm telling you important things. Decide, Nino.

Either make money with the Americans, or fight for the people.

I am fighting for myself. The revolution is not being made for the authorities.

What revolution? How small are you?

- Don't upset your mother. - Yes, I don’t upset her with anything.

- Of course. - Goodbye.

Bye.

- Good weather. - Exactly!

That's it, it's time to work. Go.

Turn here.

Maybe I'm old and even smart, but you still wait.

The people have already begun to prepare for revenge.

We won the war. And the Red Army.

Hello Remo.

Uze! Useppe!

Hello Remo!

Bella, let's go. O.K.

Well, you have to. Survived. Everyone survived.

It's not very fast, but you can drive it around everything

- rivers, deserts, mountains.

And over there we put our sleeping bags. This is a war machine.

- When will we go? - Soon, Uze, I promise.

Thanks, mum.

See you.

- Bella, let's go. - Why are you leaving?

I'll come pick you up in a jeep!

Uze, kiss me.

- Bye, mum. - Bye, Nino.

Uze, let's go.

Useppe! Get off or you'll fall!

No, I want to watch! Let me have a look!

- Enough! - Let me have a look!

- Calm down! - I want to see!

- Enough! - Let me go!

- Stop it! - I don't want to be alone!

I'm with you! Calmly. Mum is nearby.

Get up.

Go to mum, calm down.

Uze! What's happened? Where are you looking?

Go. O.K.

Go.

For Nino.

"If you come...

we left...

to school".

"Don't go."

"Don't... go away, we'll be back..."

"Soon".

Yes soon".

Signature: "Mum..."

"And Useppe."

"And Useppe."

Well?

Useppe! Useppe.

Useppe!

They fly away. And then where?

You can draw something.

Ready!

Let's go, we're late.

Now let's write the number two.

You need to draw a semicircle on the right.

And then, if possible, a curl at the bottom.

Like this.

Continue.

I want to go home! I want to go home!

I want to go home! I want to go home!

I want to go home!

Mother!

Mother! Mother!

Mother! Mother!

Useppe!

What's that noise, what happened?

Nothing, this is my son, sorry.

Calm down, we'll go home in an hour, okay?

Wait for the call and we'll leave. Please.

I beg you. Calm down. Please.

Fine.

- May you die! - What kind of expressions?

I made a mistake because of him!

Freedom! Mum, let's go!

Get into pairs!

Well done.

Nino and Bella will be back soon.

Mother!

- Mum! - What?

Come here!

Look, we've arrived.

- Here you go. - What's this?

Beautiful, is not it?

Such a big house.

This is a school for kids.

- Everyone plays here, you don’t need to sit. - I will not go.

- Listen... - We were here yesterday.

- They go to school every day. - No!

All the kids are walking. Listen to your mother, please, Useppe.

- O.K. - Let's go.

Hello. Ida Ramundo, and this is Useppe.

Come in.

I don't want to sit here. There's all this kicking, biting and pushing.

Ramundo! Ramundo!

- Ramundo! Come back quickly! - Don't want.

- Get down quickly! - I won't.

- What did I say? - No!

Okay, let's call the caretaker. Primo!

Come on, that's enough, what a noise! Quiet everything! Play silently! Silence!

Where are you going? You can't go there. You again?

- I want to go home. - I want to too, but I can’t.

Let's go back to the office. Let's go to. Let's go! O.K.

Sister Pierina! Sister Pierina!

Guys, sit down and play slowly.

Uze, you are still there! Sit down and play with the guys. Come on in.

Good Lord. Come on already. Sit down.

Behave yourself.

What are you doing here?

Canaries? They are back?

- What? What are you talking about? - And Eppetondo is back?

What's going on in your head? I will tell you. No way, are the crickets singing?

What are you saying? Let me take you to kindergarten. They're probably looking for you.

Let's go.

I cannot take on such responsibility.

And you? What example are you setting for others? What if everyone runs away?

Do you see how he looks at me?!

Sorry, Signora Mancuso, but we can't follow him.

OK. Nevertheless thank you. Let's go, Useppe.

You indulge him. So you call him Useppe.

His name is Giuseppe! Let him grow up.

- Goodbye. - Bye, Giuseppe.

Am I bad, mum?

What are you doing? No, you are my Useppe.

Let's go.

I locked it at home. Could you visit him this afternoon?

- I'll be up in a couple of hours. - Thank you.

Have a good day.

Mother!

Mother!

Mum!

- Start cleaning. - Clean it up yourself, I did my job.

Come on, there's no time!

- Don't worry, we hid them. - Where did they hide them?

On the Appian Way, near the aqueducts. We remember exactly where.

- Is the place safe? - Yes.

- Now we are waiting for the order. - Whose order?

- Remo. - These are Nazi weapons.

- It's in the blood. They don't need to kill. - Get busy!

He's right, there's real carnage in the north.

I won't write your leaflets anymore.

- “Yours”? - Enough.

Because of him we will be arrested, let him go.

"Yours"?

How long have you not eaten steak? Well, how much?

Bosses, officials, leaders...

- Understand, we are all equal! - Everyone is equal!

Just like your friends in the north.

When they arrived, no one wanted to fight for them.

- Because they didn’t believe them. - That's it.

- Now I don’t believe it either. - Yes.

And here's another thing. I don't want to die of hunger!

Moreover, dying of hunger next to you!

I want to eat steak every day.

Go ahead and eat your steak, okay? Get out!

- I don’t care about your revolution. - Oh, you bastard!

- Back! - Freak!

- What have you done here? - And take your dog away!

- Sit down! Nino. - Calm down!

Nino!

- Yes, I have an important matter. - Where are you going?

- Comrades. - Sorry.

- How many of them does he have? - What do we have here, a brothel?

He's lucky.

Thank you for your granddaughter.

Yes you. Magdalena went with pleasure.

It's difficult for me to climb stairs.

I'll look after her at school.

Send your grandson to me whenever you want.

- Thank you. - I'll work out with him.

You will suffer with him, he is stubborn.

- Have a good day. - Thank you very much.

- Hello. - Hello, good luck!

- Where is Auli? - Who is this?

Useppe? What kind of Auli?

Useppe!

Who is this?

Who is Auli?

So.

Open up.

Move over.

- Mother. - What?

Why don't others have this?

What's missing?

It doesn't turn them off like that.

In terms of?

- Do you have a headache? - No.

What then? Are thoughts tormenting you?

No no. I have a cricket.

In my head.

Uze, wait!

Signora, take the puppy.

Take the baby. Look how cute he is.

Do you want us to take it? He will live at home with us.

- And Bella? - Bella and Nino. Nobody knows where.

But they'll be back soon.

Let's go look at the clothes.

Ladies, good things, come and take them!

- Hello. - Good afternoon.

- Are there small sizes? - Yes please.

One thousand two hundred lire. A very fashionable thing these days!

Will you try it on? Which one do you like?

This.

Here you go.

- Thank you. - Come on?

General Montgomery had the same

coat when he landed in Normandy!

And it didn’t get wet on him!

It doesn't suit me.

It suits very well.

A postcard arrived from Nino! Mum, a postcard from Nino!

A postcard arrived from Nino! Mother!

Useppe!

Useppe?

Wake up.

- Mum. - What?

Tell me, won’t Nino leave for America without me?

He won't go anywhere without you.

Nino in Italy.

He has a lot to do, but he will be back soon.

Take off your coat, son.

Go to bed.

- It’s not in the new apartment. - Where then?

Don't know. And to be honest, Signora Ida, I don’t want to know.

Don't say that, I'm worried.

Nino left the party and stopped listening to me.

Maybe Davide Segra knows something.

Where does he live?

Somewhere in Portuence, but I don’t know where exactly.

Yes and he...

These guys... after the war, they were all broken.

Something inside them burned forever.

- O.K. - Better tell us how Useppe is doing.

Everything is fine.

But he is also broken.

Would you like to see your house?

- It's being reconstructed. - No.

It would hurt me.

My husband and I moved into this house after our wedding.

In a past life.

If you see Nino, tell him to come see me.

Useppe and I are waiting for him.

- Fine. - We are always waiting.

I'll pass it on.

- Goodbye. - See you later.

Good girl, everything is fine. So.

Go. You can wear it.

Is he taking medication?

Yes, sure. I give him calcium.

Eggs, milk, vitamin D.

And at night a sedative.

Did these episodes…recur?

O.K.

Tuck in your shirt.

- Baby, where did you run? - Useppe, don't go far.

I'm here.

- Sorry, sister. - Nothing.

What did you want?

I…

Just don't tell anyone: I'm a teacher.

Certainly.

When I was little,

about the same age as Useppe,

I also had moments

when I didn't understand where I was.

Did it feel like you were switched off?

Turned off. Yes.

This happened both at school and with friends.

And even at home, alone.

Did you have anything other than this? Convulsions?

Yes.

- Do you remember them? - No. I don't remember.

Mum told me many years later.

I don't remember.

I was always afraid to be in company.

- These attacks... - Could they have happened suddenly?

Yes.

I always wanted to be with my mum and dad.

I loved them very much, especially dad.

He died the same year as my husband.

And I was left alone.

But I... had Nino.

Even younger than Useppe is now.

Hello. How are you?

And I well.

Like.

Did you have any seizures as an adult?

- Once. - How it was?

Terrible.

Sit down.

I was raped.

German soldier.

Maybe,

at this time... I infected him.

- In the womb? - Yes.

- No. - He got the infection from me.

No. This is a hereditary disease.

But then he will recover like me?

Yes?

Will he get better?

Yes maybe. When permanent teeth emerge.

Here.

Shall we go?

I'll sit.

Let's go.

Where did you go?

- What do you care? - That's it!

- Well, you are impudent. - Leave him alone.

- Now what? - Have you got everything?

- We're loading. - Do the others know?

They don't know. Weapons are not tracked; no one needs them.

I know ten other places like this.

And each one contains a hidden weapon that will provide you for the rest of your life.

We're loading.

Hurry up!

Damn it! There's a checkpoint!

- Let's break through! - We can’t!

Faster! Step on the gas, come on!

- Bella, lie down! - Lie!

- Faster! - I'm trying!

Hello. Are you related to Antonio Mancuso?

I'm his mother. Did he do something?

He had an accident on the Appian Way.

Twenty-one, Mancuso!

Twenty-first!

Nino! Nino!

Mum. Where were you?

- Have you eaten? - Yes, I ate.

Well done.

Take off your coat. Let's go for a walk tomorrow.

I'll rest a little and go out.

I soon.

Ask. What a tragedy.

She doesn't leave the room. Closed and lying there.

- So you didn’t come out? - No, he doesn’t want to. And she has a child.

- He doesn’t want to. - Useppe!

Hello Uze!

Has the boy even eaten?

Annita, look for something you can use to make soup.

My God.

Hello, I'm Angela, Ida's colleague.

- Good evening. - Good evening.

Angela, Ida's colleague.

Hello Useppe.

Signor Remo!

Remo!

Who is it that we have here? How are you, Useppe?

- Fine. - Fine?

- Hello. - Good evening.

Let me show you something. Look.

Here, look at the sky.

- Do you see? - What?

- The sun of the future, do you see? - And what is it?

Well, what are you doing? This sun will protect you from everything.

- Take a good look, see? - Yes.

Hello, I read about what happened in the newspaper and came right away.

Hello. I read in the newspaper...

Here she is! Signora Ida!

Useppe, let's draw.

- I beg you... - Don’t worry, don’t worry.

- Useppe shouldn't... - He won't find out anything, I promise.

Don't worry about anything.

Signora Ida, I don’t even know what to say.

We want to help. Let us take your boy and let him stay with us.

No! For what? No.

- What are you doing? - I'm drawing!

- Beautiful. - Yes.

Was your son a member of a rebel organisation of former partisans?

Did you know this?

Their truck had previously been stolen.

It contained illegal weapons.

Do you know friends or acquaintances of your son who were involved in smuggling?

Okay, signora. You can go.

Thank you.

Mum, where did you go?

Nino!

Come on, get off, otherwise you will fall!

What? Where did you go?

I went…

Mum, what is this?

- What is this noise? - Don't know.

Bella! Hello! Mum, it's Bella!

Is Bella back?

Bella! You stink!
