Synopsis:
(ENG)
Giovanni, Peppe, Saro, Nicola, Rocco…
Five of ten soldiers, survivors of an attempted deportation, following their rebellion.
Dumilapassi tells of love and passion, war and madness,
hate and brotherhood.
Dumilapassi is the cursed distance but also the blessed hope.
A mother waiting for her children.
A friend defending the honor of those at war.
A woman giving in to the temptations of a more comfortable life.
Those who think only of themselves and only look after their own interests.
And those who with great courage face the greatest difficulties, to
return to their own land.
While the Germans are laying waste to the whole of Italy.
(ITA)
1944, dieci soldati italiani si ribellano al regime di Salò e tentano la fuga. Soltanto in cinque riusciranno nell’impresa. Il ritorno a casa, però, sarà tutt’altro che semplice. Dovranno affrontare numerose sfide ed intraprendere un lungo e complicato viaggio a piedi alla volta della Sicilia.
