April 26, 1945. Ferruccio Razzini, fifteen-year-old from Pisa, fights in defense of the Italian Social Republic without knowing that Mussolini is already dead and that Italy has just been liberated. In his diary he tells the story of his father, a fervent fascist, and that of his two sisters, one married to a fascist and the other to a communist partisan. After Hit the Road, grandmother, Duccio Chiarini, with a refined stylistic code able to keep the narrative in balance between comedy and tragedy, investigates another side of the history of his family starting from the pages written by his great uncle.

Best movie ever!
This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
