Noi credevamo

Domenico, Salvatore and Angelo are three young men who live in Cilento. We’re in the period of the Bourbon’s domination and repression, in 1828. They react to the historical period in very different ways and we assist to their stories through the four chapters whereby the director divides the movie. Giuseppe Mazzini’s Young Italy and the Italian Risorgimento are the historical events that imprint the story. Presented at the Venice Film Festival and honoured by seven David di Donatello awards and a Silver Ribbon, the film was presented preview with a 205 minutes- duration, while it has been reduced to 175 minutes for theatres.
