MY VOYAGE TO ITALY

Francesco! 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.
