There are always opportunities for redemption.
A humanistic, episodic portrait of ordinary people—soldiers and civilians—finding moments of connection and redemption amid the chaos and moral ambiguity of war.
Six stories unfold in various regions, from Sicily to the northern Po Valley as American military personnel interact with a variety of Italian locals over eighteen months in the push north during the Italian Campaign of WWII as German forces retreat.
