WW2 plays a role in this film but not a dominating role. Actually this film is about life in a small Italian village during WW2 times. It is about rural life ...about being poor ... about and friends and family ... about having dreams ... and mostly the grace of music.
I think this is an exceptional movie! It is beautifully filmed and acted and the soundtrack is perfectly executed! And the locations are gorgeous. It is a film that understands what it was like in rural Italy in 1942 and it will transport you back in time. Finally the characters are ever so rich!
This is a film that understands that life is mostly tragic but you can still have your dreams.
Highly recommended! 8 of 10!
