Product Description

ROME, OPEN CITY)
A film by Roberto Rossellini

A landmark of Italian neorealism, and often cited as one of the greatest films ever made, Roberto Rossellin's portrait of life under the Nazi occupation remains remarkable for its sheer immediacy, tension and power. Rome, Open City tells the story of an Italian partisan, Francesco (Marcello Pagliero), his finance, Pina (Anna Magnani), one of the heads of the Italian resistance, Manfredi, and a Catholic priest, Don Pietro (Aldo Fabrizi).

This ground-breaking film is the first part of Rossellini's celebrated War Trilogy (followed by Paisà and Germany Year Zero).
