In a small Italian town in the 60â¿¿s and 70â¿¿s, two brothers want to change the world--but in completely different ways. The elder, Manrico, is a handsome, charismatic firebrand who becomes the prime mover in the local Communist party. Accio, the younger, more rebellious brother, finds his own contrarian voice by joining the reactionary Fascists. What starts as a typical tale of sibling rivalry becomes the story of the polarizing and paralyzing politics of those turbulent times and, the rift between the brothers is further intensified when Accio realizes that he loves his brotherâ¿¿s girlfriend, Francesca who, like everyone else, is blind to Manricoâ¿¿s increasingly dangerous ideas.
