Long Night in '43
Directed by Florestano Vancini
Produced by Ajace Produzioni Cinematografiche, Euro International Films
A morally fraught wartime drama where personal desire and political violence collide, leaving characters trapped between complicity and conscience.
1943. The affair between Anna, unhappily married to wheelchair-bound Pino, and deserter Franco unfolds in foggy Ferrara, intertwining with the power struggle taking place within local Fascist ranks that culminates in a massacre of civilians, including Franco's father – Pino sees it all from his window, but will he tell anyone?
