Do You Remember Revolution

Loredana Bianconi
1997 Belgium 116 minutes Italian

“In Italy, in the mid-seventies, Adriana, Barbara, Nadia and Susanna were 20 years old when they decided to join the armed struggle and leave behind their families in order to make the revolution the centre and the aim of their existence. Today they have returned after many years in prison, and they try, each of them, to recount their own experiences. They speak about the political reasons which initially sustained them, the conflicts, the doubts, and the moments of being torn apart which marked out their lives as women caught up in the vortex of war. A course of events which ended in the condemnation of the armed struggle and the pain of the lives that were destroyed – their victims’ lives and their own.” (Loredana Bianconi)
