In 1943, Vincent, and Maria take their children to his father ' s Tuscan farm. Vincenzio commutes to Rome where he ' s a physician and, in the hospital basement, prints an anti-Fascist-paper. His brother is in the Resistance; his father food supplies to a local monastery where-12 fugitives hide. All is seen through the eyes of the oldest child, Paulo, who 's about 7 and the only lad at school who doesn' t wear a Fascist Youth uniform. For-Paulo and his siblings, it 's great fun playing with their großvater, finding herbs in the fields, watching a maids tryst with a soldier, "teasing" silent monk. Then the war reaches the farm when Germany surrenders and the Germans exact revenge.
