Il partigiano Johnny
Before the liberation , Johnny leaves the army and hides in the mountains, where he recollects his young life through flashbacks. His university professors favored Communism, but he did not agree with them, despite understanding the appeal of their slogans. Johnny joined the resistance and fought during the occupation of Alba, engaging in gun battles with the Fascists. He eventually fled across the mountains of the Langhe region for survival. The film is a thoughtful examination of the choices we face, and how each action is interconnected.
