The film depicts the experiences of Italians, both Jewish and non-Jewish, during the period spanning from the enactment of the racial laws (1938) to the deportations from Italy (1943-1945). Numerous testimonies are presented, offering diverse perspectives, including those of individuals who, at the time (and even today), supported the enforcement of those measures.
Museums, archaeological sites, palaces, and fortresses—symbols of the richness of our national cultural heritage—often off the beaten tourist paths, offering an intimate and personal experience that rewards the anticipation of their discovery.
Through this initiative by the Directorate-General for Museums, we uncover the marvels of our land with a journey into the heart of culture.
