Unbelievable bad even for a TV movie, and especially for an Italian film! It is shamefully and childish strained versus Slovenians (which in this movie are showed at least as terrorists), which in reality were oppressed, spit-on, offended and killed by Italian Fascists for decades! Typical politically oriented movie. The movie came in a moment when Italian neo-fascist party is fortifying again, and after the movie has been broadcasted in Italy and Slovenia, there had been many vandalism acts over the Slovene monuments or memorials in bilingual zones of Eastern Italy (which borders to Slovenia, and where historical wounds are still opened, even 60 years after WWII...)

Italian cinema has deeply influenced world cinema through its socially conscious realism and modernist experimentation, but it also flourished in popular genres like peplum (sword & sandal), giallo thrillers, and broad comedies. Its narratives often weave together politics, contemporary social change, class consciousness, and family dynamics, balancing artistic ambition with entertainment that resonated widely.
