Cefalonia

Kefalonia, 8th September 1943

In September 1943, the announcement that Italy has signed a separate peace with the Allied Powers leaves the Italian troops of occupation in Greece euphoric. But their hopes of a quick return home are soon dashed by their former German allies, who demand that they either surrender or fight. Battle-weary Sergeant Saverio, who was hoping to find his own peace with Feria, a Italian immigrant to Greece whose husband has left her to go to America, is forced to drive a truck carrying Italian officers to their deaths before a German firing squad. Originally opposed to the resistance, he takes an active role.
