Libere

by Rossella Schillaci

Through valuable archive material and the real voices of female partisan, this film tells the role of women in the Italian Resistance.
According to many, this period marked the birth of feminism in Italy, where the struggle fo liberation is also seen as emancipation and pursuit of freedom and equality. What happened after the celebrations of April 25, 1945? What did women get after Liberation? Were expectations fulfilled and promises maintained? Their reflections, sometimes to love, reveal a piece of our often forgotten history. The film investigates a peace of forgotten history, from Resistance to the post-war period.
