Since time immemorial, women have been excluded from war matters, as if war didn't affect them at all, if not as passive victims.

But reality is different.

In many wars, women have played a vital role, often paying with their own lives as men did, for the stupidity of mankind.

They suffered, they bravely risked their own lives, and often died in the name of peace sought at all costs without compromising their female dignity.

Your turn.

And, a, girls, I'm afraid this is your last show.

I honestly can't carry on like this.

Expenditures are too high.

And I think I should tell you we'll be closing by the end of the week.

It seems that clients prefer the new brothel they've opened in town.

Look, don't worry.

You've always been so kind to us.

But times are changing, it would seem.

Times are hard.

Don't worry, something will turn up.

Good luck.

Thanks.

Bye, girls.

All the best.

God bless you.

Thanks.

Bye.

Venus, god.

Poor guy.

What will become of him?

What do you mean poor him?

And what about us then?

We're literally out on our .

Hey, girls, calm down.

This is not the right time to have a row.

Who's this?

Good evening, ladies.

Forgive my intrusion.

My name is George of asali, and I think I can be of some help to you.

We certainly don't need your help, not at a moment like this.

Please leave us.

Alone.

Wait.

Don't be so hasty.

Let's see what this fine gentleman has to offer us.

Banista kiss, the gentleman who runs the.

Brothel.

So what?

Maybe we should keep our job options open.

Maybe we could even earn some more money.

Mmhmm.

Actually, I've always had a penchant for beautiful and intelligent women like yourself.

So what do you say?

Shall we go to a dinner together, miss.

Vanessa?

Is it wise?

You don't know him, for goodness sake.

Don't be silly.

I think I can trust him.

I'll see you tomorrow for afternoon tea.

Good evening.

Mmhmm.

Revoir.

Venice has gone completely .

Oh, hey, wow.

This is my room.

What a beautiful hat.

I hope you.

Like it.

God oh.

Did you enjoy dinner?

Oh, did you have.

Fun?

Now the fun begins.

Vanessa.

Oh, yes.

You're sir.

I know.

Come on.

Georgia.

I can give you.

Can you really?

You're a resourceful woman.

Well, actually, you haven't seen them yet.

You're in China.

Oh, let me touch you.

Yes, yes.

Mmhmm.

Coming.

Some what?

Georgia?

Yes, my dear.

Let's go over there.

Mmhmm.

Oh, my god.

And second.

Oh, okay.

Of course oh, what?

Purple our home.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, yes, I have.

Yes.

Oh, oh, hello.

Oh, yes.

And oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Oh all the world.

Oh, so, come on.

Oh, oh, oh, yes.

Ho, ho, ho.

Move on to.

Oh oh, oh, no.

Oh, yes.

That's it.

Oh, there you are.

Oh, you hey, oh, oh, wow.

Oh, oh, I pull up.

Oh, oh, you're still too oh, and oh, fire bye, bye used.

Oh, oh oh, yes.

Oh, oh, ya.

Oh, hello.

Oh, he has to give up.

Hello.

Oh, no.

Happy New Year.

Oh, I've just had an idea, an interesting little project for you and your little cleek.

And so what do you mean?

You're obviously very close, which is what I was looking for.

I need you as much as you need me.

Invite them over tomorrow.

Yes, but I don't understand what you're getting at.

Let's just say that it's something that is perfectly suited to your talents.

You're young and beautiful, your good actresses, which is fundamental.

You'll be playing an important role.

Do you accept?

You're being a bit vague.

Can't you in a bit?

Oh, I was almost forgetting your share, darling, for services.

Render.

You slide.

Treacherous bustard.

I'm not a woman of ill repute.

I didn't ask for money.

I just wanted to know more about the project.

Well, then I might as well buy myself a new dress.

Hang on.

That's a lot of money.

Oh, well, I'll buy a fur coat as well.

All right.

See you soon, my little prince.

Bye, bye.

Bye.

See you soon.

I've got a feeling that perfect for my plan.

I'm worried about Vanessa.

Goodness knows what she did last night.

She's really rash.

I know.

Look, is that really her?

You?

I've got a feeling that something has happened.

What happened?

You look great.

Girls, our life is about to change that.

Georgia is a real gentleman.

What.

Happened last night?

How did you get that fur coat.

She gave herself at the brother last night?

Obviously.

Katerina, are you jealous?

It's not what you think.

JoJo is a very generous man.

Actually, he wanted to know if you'd all come to a party at his place.

He'd like to get to know you all.

Actually, he wants to talk business.

He'll be sending his car around to collect us.

Not over my dead body.

Well, why not?

We've got nothing to lose have.

We can take the bull by the horns and see what he's offering.

After all, we're desperate.

Yes, why not?

Let's hear him out, see what he's proposing.

Then we can decide.

None of us have a steady relationship at present or family to take care of us.

And times are hard.

We have to survive.

And quite frankly, I'm desperate.

I've got to pay the rent.

And Katarina, you need money for your father's medicines or he'll die.

So what do you say?

Let's give it a go.

Maybe you're right.

We don't have much choice.

We have nothing to lose.

And basically, for a forecut like that, I'd screwed the entire regiment.

Good evening.

Good evening.

Good.

Welcome to my humble abode.

Thank you.

Allow me to introduce my dear friend.

This is Marco.

These are the girls.

I was 10.

Good evening.

This is Angelica.

On chanter.

I'm delighted.

Marco.

Sorry, but I'd like a word in private with the girls.

Would you please excuse us.

Marco?

Yes, excuse me.

I promised to bring her back straight away.

Just a moment.

Follow me.

And jelly.

And jelly, please come in and please sit down.

You must swear never to breathe a word of this to any one else.

And this is just for starters.

You can keep your money to yourself.

Where not .

Let me explain.

Please consider my offer very well.

I am fully aware, love your situation.

I don't want to take advantage.

I know you're out of work.

These are hard times, but I really can't help you.

You'll be able to earn yourself some money.

I know you all need it.

And what I'm offering you is a steady job where you can earn a thousand lire a month.

Think about it.

I doubt your offering money simply for our looks.

There must be something we have to do to earn it.

Come to the point.

Let's say that you'll have to keep my best clients entertained and keep them amused.

It should be easy for you.

You'll have to satisfy the needs and get hold of secret information.

Ladies, you do understand that the brothel is purely a cover up.

You have to find out what they're hiding, political secrets, strategic plans.

If the fascist find out, I can assure you my days would be numbered.

But I'm afraid to say so would yours.

There's only one other person other than yourselves who knows who I really.

Am.

So we'd be risking our lives.

No, there's nothing to fear.

The plan is perfect.

But you'll have to undergo a training program beforehand to learn how to behave, how to avoid sticky situations and defend yourselves if necessary.

I don't think I'm up to it.

I'm not that courageous or devious actually.

To start with.

There'll be lessons on etiquette.

Remember, you'll be dealing with people from the upper classes, ambassadors, ministers, fascist hierarchy, and maybe even German officers.

They're in intelligent and cultured people.

I'm not asking you a personal favour.

You'll be working for your country, not for me.

So girls, what do you say?

We still need a little more time to think it over.

We can give you a better answer tomorrow.

Yes.

That's fair enough.

Very well.

Then I'd like to propose a toast, Monica.

Thank you, Angelica, here's your glass.

Vanessa, katerina, a toast to your future and.

Health.

Cheers.

Well, we were completely mad to accept his offer.

Who would have ever thought?

We were young and foolish and we were willing to do our bit.

Full of hope for the future, believing we could save the world.

Gosh, so true.

And could you remember then and how young we were?

And can you remember that dishy training officer.

Angelica?

I remember him only too well.

Oh, but you are always such a good girl.

Can you remember but the night that course ended, I remember seeing you.

Wait, what was his name again?

Valentino?

No, Walter.

Yes, Walter.

Nps.

Wait, miss, just a minute.

Yes.

What is it, sir?

Please.

Catarina.

Don't call me sir.

Yes, as you wish, sir.

I mean, valtterre.

I've been keeping my eye on you.

I just wanted to say be careful.

I know your trainings are over and we may never see each other again, but maybe I could take you for tea some time or even dinner.

I.

I just wanted to say.

That there's nothing to say.

Don't say anything else.

Mmhmm.

I.

My.

I don't know.

Oh, no.

Oh, oh, oh, cool.

Papa.

Oh, blue.

Oh, oh, my.

Who.

You.

Oh, so, but, happy.

Hi 4.

Park.

All the wow, wow.

Oh, on all of them.

No.

Oh, I would oh, oh, no.

Happy New Year.

Oh, 4 oh my mom.

Or oh, oh, oh.

Come on.

So, no.

Who are all right for?

And, oh, come on.

So, wow.

Oh, come on.

Thank you.

Oh, oh, apple.

I.

Of the war.

Our country.

Good evening.

Do you remember the information that you wanted?

You can have it in exchange for the girl, Angelica.

Very well.

I think I can organize everything.

I don't think there'll be any problems.

You'll have them.

But I want the information first, my friend.

Remember that.

Do you know who I am?

If I wanted, I could have you.

I rested this very night.

It seems you've missed the point.

I don't care who you are.

I want that information beforehand.

And then you can evangelika.

Well, the information will be yours.

To our country.

These are your orders.

You will have to be very careful.

He's a very dangerous person with a lot of power.

Remember that he asked for you specifically.

He picked you out the first evening when you came here.

So.

What do I have to do then?

Isn't it obvious?

Get any information, anything about the troops on the front line, the regimes plans, any imminent shifts of power.

Basically anything.

Anything he tells you is useful information.

What's wrong?

Your training will see you through.

I don't understand.

I'm getting cold feet.

Are you?

Look, don't you worry, I won't let you down.

I've got what it takes to pull off this mission.

You'll see.

Right?

That's my goal.

Be careful.

Whatever you do, don't blow your cover.

You're the last person I want to lose, believe me.

If anything goes wrong, I will deny having ever known.

You'll be on your own.

Have you got.

That?

Of course I have.

Thank you.

Very good.

Now go and get ready.

Tomorrow evening will be your big day.

Angelica, what's wrong?

You look worried.

I noticed, too.

Has something happened?

No, everything's fine.

But I'm afraid.

I'm very worried, basically, very afraid.

Actually, Giorgio has given me a mission, too, a high ranking officer.

Please be careful, Angelica, and remember what you were taught in training and everything will be fine.

You'll see.

It'll be all right.

And they do say just lie back and.

putty jump。

They also say that Vanessa is unbeatable between these sheets.

That's enough, girls.

Let's wish her all the best.

We'll be thinking of you.

Really.

It's true.

But let's not exaggerate.

She's only got to screw him and report back everything that he says.

Let's keep it in proportion.

I agree with Katarina.

It's not the end of the world.

All the best to your health.

Cheers.

Okay, here I am.

Good.

Just as I remember, you're absolutely divine.

The evening that I first saw you, it was as if my world stood still.

It was then that I decided that I had to have you.

And here you are before me.

Well, as you can see, I'm extremely eager to serve our country and its people, I think it's only right to offer comfort, and solace to our brave soldiers.

Yes, good.

It's girls like your lovely self that make this terrible war worth fighting for.

We're all destined to die, but very few of us know how to live.

And as our general says, better to die as a lion than live as a sheep.

Well, that's enough talking for now.

Show me what a lion you really are then, and I'll be your sacrificial lamb.

A.

AA.

A.

A.

Hey, you are absolutely wonderful.

What are you thinking about?

I can't stop thinking about the Germans.

To our faces, they call us allies, but they're just playing cat and mouse with us as they take control of Europe while we sit backstage and lick their boots.

I don't know anything about politics or military matters or such, but I think Italy should break the alliance.

My dear to Morrow, in Rome, important heads of state are meeting and they will be deciding our future.

Well, let's hope that their decision doesn't drag us into another bloody conflict.

I'm very pleased.

You're doing an excellent job with the information you've gathered.

You've managed to save the lives of hundreds of Italian troops.

But now the going gets tough.

What do you mean exactly.

The Germans are abandoning Italy.

The Americans were in Sicily.

The entire south is occupied.

So we can say the war is virtually over.

Well, that's good news then.

But it's not a good reason to lower our guard.

I've got a job for you, Monica.

You're the perfect choice.

It's a very delicate mission.

I know you speak German.

Now's the time to put it to use.

But I haven't spoken German for donkey's years.

And I don't know if.

I have complete faith in you.

You have a week to study the plan.

After that, you'll go to Milan.

One of my collaborators is already stationed there.

Discover all you can, all you have to do is listen.

That's all.

But remember that as far as the Germans are concerned, you speak only Italian.

Have you understood?

Very well.

As you wish, I'll go and prepare my things.

I don't have much time.

I'll feel the same.

Bye, bye.

There are also orders for you, too, as well.

You will both go to the brothel.

It's all been organized.

And don't worry, at the brothel, you'll meet up with the Swiss ambassador.

I've always dreamed of having a Swiss boyfriend.

Maybe he'll marry me and whisk me off to Geneva.

He would be so romantic.

There's nothing to joke about.

The Americans and the British are planning a full out landing, but we don't know where.

Try and uncover what their plans are for the French.

And why are we going together this time on this mission.

Yes.

Why?

This ambassador has not been in Italy long, but he talks Italian very well because it would seem his parents are both Italian, very dependable.

Sources have informing he's not really an ambassador but a spy working for the Americans and British.

And he's very familiar with espionage skills.

I'm sorry, but wouldn't just one of us be sufficient?

You must understand he'll be a hard nut to crack.

Eh?

Well, he's not going to tell us his secrets, is he?

His only weakness is women.

He considers them inferior, simple playthings.

He has rather refined tastes.

He likes to have 2 women at a time.

This is the card up your sleeve.

Now go and get ready.

Good luck, girls.

Now come on.

Well, okay then.

Okay.

Bye.

Good night.

Bye.

It would seem that I'm left knit in socks.

Don't worry, it will be your turn soon, but not today.

Walter, is it really you?

Yes, dear.

After that night together, I just couldn't forget you.

I look for you everywhere, but no one would tell me where you were working and on what mission.

I actually had to get into the secret services archives.

But valder, if you both work for them while the clock and dagger stuff, I don't understand.

It's not that simple.

They're not running this shooting match, but I really can't tell you anymore for now.

Seen as my friends are risking their lives, I feel I have the right to know everything.

Can I take you to dinner?

Why not?

And you can tell me all you know.

Thank you.

Here I am.

I didn't realize that he was watching us from the window.

He sent the man to follow us.

We spend the night together and he promised to meet me the following day.

But unfortunately, that was the last time I saw him.

Georgia was always such a heartless .

He had ice running in his veins.

Sometimes I would shiver just looking at him.

When I went to Milan, the Germans were already hot on his trail.

That had sent me directly into the lion's den.

I had to cope as best I could.

Angelica, do you remember?

That's Swiss gentleman.

He certainly knew how to please a lady.

Hey, he was so kind.

A real gentleman.

He was absolutely impeccable on the outside, but he had a passionate heart.

There's nobody I know no well.

Well, wow, what a house.

One thing's for certain, he's got plenty of money.

Of course he's rich.

Do you remember he's posing as a French ambassador.

Swiss.

Oh, yes, you're right.

What's that?

So.

With the house you compound to the.

But swear, madame.

Come on.

7.

Good evening or some if.

I play here.

Oh, magnifique.

I'm Sean.

Come on nps.

Nps, nps, nps, nps.

Didn't.

Love.

Nps, nps.

Nps.

Nps.

Right.

Mm ya.

Oh, no, please.

No.

Oh, there.

Oh, boy.

Oh, no mmhmm.

Mmhmm.

Ya.

Oh, oh, no.

For.

Oh, oh oh, eh, eh.

Oh hello.

Go ahead.

Oh, oh, oh, my god but, oh, oh, oh.

Never heard.

Oh, oh, no.

Oh oh, oh, no.

Go.

Mm.

Oh, no harm.

Oh oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, no oh, oh, wow.

Oh, and, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Oh for them.

Mmhmm.

Bye, bye.

Mmhmm.

Oh, you wanted to talk to me?

Of.

Course.

I've got another mission for you.

What will I be doing?

There's rather flamboyant countess, a bit of an exhibitionist.

She's asked me a favor.

She wants me to find her of eager lesbians to celebrate her birthday.

There'll be 2 of you.

There's a new girl.

The countess is vital for her contacts.

I accept.

But it's my last mission.

I've decided to leave.

I've got enough money and I've decided to get married.

I've had enough of this.

Really, man.

May I ask who the lucky man is?

I don't think it would be a good idea to tell you, but you will find out.

Anyway, the nice gentleman who helped us with our training.

Walter.

Walter, he's actually just been given a new mission this morning, a very dangerous mission, in fact, right on the front line.

I don't believe you.

Look, he promised to meet me today.

It's not true.

Sorry.

You are a liar.

Stop.

I think I've seen something.

Carry on.

It must be over there.

Come on, follow me, hey, what are you doing?

Heaven, I judge.

Oh, oh, no.

Faster.

Something has happened.

Say the spouse is destroyed.

Themselves to see.

Administration.

Must show you the shirt.

Oh, how many time?

Yes.

Some said that.

Looks Christmas.

Husband is a child.

I mean, please.

Unreal.

Are you so sorry?

Strong hands by the pacific.

No.

And where the.

Hell have you been Katherine?

You're at least off an hour.

Late.

Please, I need to know has anything happened to valter?

Is there any use?

You shouldn't worry Katarina everything's fine.

Now let the show begin.

That people.

Waiting.

Listen George, maybe you don't get my drift.

I won't do anything until I know Walter's all right.

Bloody won't stop it.

No, I'm not moving from here.

You really are a stubborn little girl.

Mission accomplished.

Re entry in 4 days time.

Walter Matteo, this.

Came half an hour ago.

You must forgive me.

I've been rather silly but I promised to pull out all the stops this evening.

It will be a wonderful evening.

Countess, I must apologize for thee these beginning.

Please send everybody away.

Excuse me.

Thank.

Thank you so much for coming.

That the contest.

Goodbye.

As you heard the contest.

Yes, I think I.

I'm afraid the countess has decided that.

Yes, of course.

And goodbye to you, sir.

Pleasure to meet you.

Sit down.

These are my girls.

They are now at your complete disposal.

Countess, if I may, let me congratulate.

The girls are absolutely charming.

If.

No, you know, and.

If.

Thank you.

Me, you go.

Spoon wow.

Oh, flow.

Follow them.

No, oh, no.

Oh, hello, food.

Oh, no.

Oh, no, no.

Oh, oh, not.

Oh, cool.

Oh, oh, oh, my.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, no.

I have oh, oh, mommy alone.

Oh, no.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh what?

Oh oh, no.

No.

Oh, hello.

And then, oh, wow.

I oh, no.

Done.

I no, no, oh, no, no.

No.

No.

Oh, for.

Okay.

Oh, no.

Mmhmm.

No.

Oh, oh, oh mm.

Didn't buckle up with Dana.

You do not.

Oh, oh no, hello.

Enough.

Mm.

Mmhmm.

Oh, no.

Alright, I'm.

Oh, no.

Oh, oh, oh, mm.

Oh, no.

Meaning.

Mmhmm.

Okay.

And that is how I completed my last mission.

Well, I have to say it was rather fun.

Georgia convinced me.

He tricked me.

The telegram I saw was a complete fake, that Georgia had sent valter off with a hired killer to get him out of the way.

Yes.

They were really hard times then.

And exciting.

We really did have a lot of adventures, didn't we?

No.

Hi, mom.

Good evening then, ladies.

Have fun.

When you.

He's the spitting image of his father.

It's absolutely amazing.

Yes.

And he's got his father's sweet character, too.

Yes.

Time passes.

I often ask myself if a new generation has Learned anything for that atrocious war.

Yes.

Talk about the war.

You finished telling us about the story of your mission in Milan.

Yes.

Where was I?

Yes, I remember.

Alright.

We were all around the table.

I've always loved strip poker.

I've got them virtually down to their underpants.

Lost again.

It.

Come on off of this shirt what are you looking at?

Well, it would seem you have won.

So it's up to me to decide what we'll play.

I like Italian women because they take the initiative.

Yes.

Why don't you come a little closer.

Mmhmm.

Or that is not your year.

Mmhmm.

Mmhmm.

Oh, my.

Mmhmm.

Bro, everyone.

Mmhmm.

To.

Oh, yes.

Hello.

Father.

And oh.

Bye.

No.

Oh right.

Mmhmm.

Mm ya.

No oh no oh oh, no.

Oh I.

Oh, good enough.

Oh, go on.

Oh, all right.

Oh, you.

No.

Mmm.

I don't know.

Mmhmm.

No, no.

Another game.

That's the story.

After which I didn't really care about.

More important things.

What things?

Getting the information, of course.

So, girls, what happened to Georgia in the end?

I worked for him for another 2 years until the war finished.

Do you remember the information we got together?

Well, he didn't only sell it to the Americans, but also to the Russians, too.

When the Americans got wind of it, they captured him and shot him.

A cruel destiny.

We interrupt our program with some important news today, the 20/2/1958, a new law has been passed with respect to houses of ill repute.

The law specifies article one, it is forbidden to run houses for the purpose of within the state and territories under Italian jurisdiction.

Article 2, this includes houses, areas or any other locations where is carried out or places declared to be instantly institutions of , as defined by article one 90.

For public safety, approved with the law degree of agency, the development great, these establishments will have to be closed within 6 months from the date in which this law is issued.

Girls, it looks like we're out to work again.
