With its mix of wartime hardship, comedic interludes, and Italian magic realism, the film was named the Best Film by the prestigious National Society of Film Critics (1982). Drawing inspiration from their own experiences in Nazi-occupied Italy, the Taviani brothers (Paolo and Vittorio), this touching tale of wartime survival is told as a bedtime story by a loving mother drawing on memories of her childhood fleeing her Tuscan village during World War II. American liberation is promised within days, but the Nazis have rigged village houses with mines, so the residents of San Martino flee to the countryside, where encounters with fascists are common and deadly.

Some filmmakers and technicians, such as Jean Devaivre (Jacques Gamblin - winner of a Silver Bear at 2002 Berlin International Film Festival), an assistant director, simply went along with what their new political leaders asked, hoping to keep themselves and their families out of trouble; while others, such as screenwriter Jean Aurenche (Denis Podalydes), tried to convey an anti-German message through their work. |
