From June 1940 to September 1943, the Italian army occupied several departments in the South of France. Thousands of Jews take refuge there. But in September 1943, the armistice between Italy and the Allies signaled the arrival of the Germans and the flight of Italian soldiers and Jews across the mountain. We tell this historic period through the story of a love affair between Rima, a young Jewish girl of Russian origin and Federico, an attractive Italian officer. Photo albums and letters found allow us to embody a little-known side of the history of the Second World War.
