Carracci - La rivoluzione silenziosa

For decades, wherever people have fought against injustice, they have sung “Bella ciao.” It is said to have been the anthem of Italian partisans fighting against fascism in the Second World War, but there are those who doubt the truth of this.

Females who don't contribute to the demographic future of the country are seen as a problem to resolve, thus every year they are called to declare to a Government Office the reason why they haven't had any babies in the last twelve months.

Their acquaintance forces them to choose in an instant the direction of their future: any choice will result in a radical change of their destiny.
