SYNOPSIS
This film tells the story of a woman, Lina, who fights for freedom during the period of Italian history from 1828 to 1863, when the “Pica” law was enacted following the unification of Italy. For 35 years, the protagonist and the peasantry live in harsh social conditions due to the misgovernment of the kings of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. The people of southern Italy, particularly in Cilento, are constantly exploited by the royals. Injustice and the lack of a constitution spark revolutions and popular uprisings calling for a constitution and freedom. Due to a wrong suffered by the nobles, Lina is forced to become a revolutionary. She joins the rebels and fights alongside them in the uprisings of 1828 and 1848, until the raids of 1863, when the Pica law is enacted, exterminating all the rebels and forcing them to flee the territories. To save her son, who is fleeing toward the ship that will take him to America, the woman will throw herself onto the pursuing boat and blow it up. Despite her death, she will find the freedom she longs for.
