1943, Italy: In the darkest days of the war, a young baker's apprentice murders his employer before taking to the empty midnight streets. We pick up the story over half a century later with Giovanna a dissatisfied young wife and mother and as the lives of these seemingly very different people collide so Giovanna's fate begins to reflect that of the now elderly baker's apprentice. A haunting image of passion, rage and desperation and the winner of five David di Donatello (Italian Academy) Awards, including Best Film, Best Actor and Best Actress.
