Four young people in an apartment in one of Western Europe’s metropoles find themselves stuck in a conversation about something.

“Bella ciao”, an Italian protest folk song from the late 19th century, was originally sung by the mondina workers in protest against the harsh working conditions in the paddy fields of Northern Italy. It is widely assumed that the song was modified and adopted as an anthem of the Italian resistance movement by the partisans. The partisans opposed na- zism and fascism. However, historians argue that there is little to no evidence that Italian partisans actually sang the song. Versions of “Bella ciao” continue to be sung worldwide as a hymn of freedom and resistance.
