The Old Soldier's Ballad
6.9
In November 1999, a film team went from Rio de Janeiro to Brasilia to document the 11th National Meeting of the Veterans of World War II. The team returns to Rio de Janeiro and begins a series of interviews with veterans and former fighters, who tell their experiences on the front of Italy, a country devastated by the conflict and in whose territory there were still Nazi-fascist armies. In February 2000, the same team heads to northern Italy to document the cities where Brazilian troops passed, in the regions of Emilia Romana and Tuscany.
