00:00:11The End
00:00:35One hundred years ago, Italy was not a united country as it is today.
00:00:39It was divided into separate states, governed by independent rulers or foreign viceroys,
00:00:45most of whom were content with the way things were.
00:00:48The king of Sardinia and Piedmont, however, by name Victor Emmanuel,
00:00:52had greater ambitions, encouraged by his prime minister, Cavour.
00:00:57Their idea was to unite Italy under their own rule.
00:01:00To do this, they would have to conquer Venice,
00:01:04the central band of states held by the Pope at Rome,
00:01:06and the kingdom of Naples and Sicily to the south.
00:01:10This kingdom had as its ruler the Bourbon Francis II.
00:01:13He was young and good-hearted, but powerless in the hands of corrupt prime ministers and generals.
00:01:20All over his kingdom, people wanted to throw off his government
00:01:24and unite with the northern states, whether in a kingdom or a republic, was not important.
00:01:29If only Italy could be free and won.
00:01:33In Palermo, the capital of Sicily,
00:01:36a group of conspirators was gathered in the cellar of a monastery
00:01:40early one morning in spring,
00:01:43waiting to begin the revolt that would lead to freedom.
00:01:49What time is it?
00:01:50You've got the watch, haven't you?
00:02:01It's now ten minutes after six.
00:02:04What time sunrise?
00:02:05The sacristan is going to give us a signal at sunrise.
00:02:08I know.
00:02:16Listen, it's him coming.
00:02:30The monastery's all surrounded.
00:02:32What?
00:02:32We're surrounded.
00:02:33Surrounded by who?
00:02:34Policemen, spies, soldiers.
00:02:36Oh, yes.
00:02:36Let's stay here and hide.
00:02:37We'll be safe this way.
00:02:38And the rest of them who are waiting for the signal to begin,
00:02:40the ones at Polaro and the ones at St. Anna.
00:02:42Then what shall we do?
00:02:43That's all, Lee.
00:02:44You go ahead of us to the bell tower and start ringing the bell.
00:02:47The square's not big.
00:02:48If we can manage to surprise the spies and soldiers,
00:02:51we'll be able to reach the streets.
00:02:52Then we can get people to join us.
00:02:53Let's go.
00:02:54Come on.
00:02:54Down with the boys.
00:03:01Shh.
00:03:02Be quiet.
00:03:03Close the trap door.
00:03:04Hurry.
00:03:05Hurry on up.
00:03:05Quick and come on.
00:03:13Bring the flag.
00:03:14Get a move on.
00:03:17Hurry.
00:03:23You go and send us to the bell tower.
00:03:25Be quiet.
00:03:25Go this way.
00:03:26We'll go out to the courtyard.
00:03:28Come on.
00:03:28Hurry.
00:03:30Hurry.
00:03:31Hurry.
00:03:32Hurry.
00:03:34Hurry.
00:03:37Hurry.
00:03:38Hurry.
00:03:41Hurry.
00:03:47Hurry.
00:03:55Wait.
00:03:56Ring the bells.
00:03:58Get the flag out.
00:04:05You're over there ready
00:04:40Oh
00:05:06Oh
00:05:22Right
00:05:29Aim
00:05:32Fire
00:05:39I've got a right to go free
00:05:41I'm not dead
00:05:42I've got a right to go free
00:05:44Now you're free
00:05:53The cries of these martyrs to freedom
00:05:55And national unity were not to go unheeded
00:05:58In Genoa, a man named Giuseppe Garibaldi had heard them
00:06:04Garibaldi had already fought many battles in the cause of united Italy
00:06:08He had helped to make a republic with its capital at Rome for a short while
00:06:12But the forces of reaction and even Cavour had soon put an end to that brief moment of freedom
00:06:20Now Garibaldi was more cautious in his actions
00:06:23And yet he could not ignore the meaning of the conspiracy in Palermo
00:06:27He began to be surrounded by adherents of Italian unity
00:06:31To certain men who had fought with him before
00:06:33But who were now in other armies
00:06:34He sent his trusted agents to find out which ones were willing to leave everything
00:06:39And fight with him again
00:07:04Here he is, we've brought him
00:07:05Oh Giuseppe Garibaldi
00:07:07It's good to see you
00:07:08I'm glad to find you well General
00:07:10Hello Nino
00:07:11Hello Nino
00:07:12Hello Nino
00:07:12Guzzmaroli I can imagine has told you why you're here
00:07:15No
00:07:15Sit down then
00:07:18I was sitting in a cafe in Alessandria
00:07:20When I found him standing in front of me
00:07:21The General wants you, come on
00:07:23He didn't even allow me to go home
00:07:24He dragged me to the station
00:07:25Pushed me under the first train
00:07:26And here I am
00:07:27May I go now General?
00:07:28Yes
00:07:31You've never lost contact with your companions in Siena?
00:07:34Of course not
00:07:35Then you must go down there to make recruits
00:07:39Push all the way down the valley into Umbria
00:07:41Win over everyone that's possible
00:07:45Push on to Perugia to find out if the people of Perugia are willing to fight for liberty
00:07:52But to be able to do this you say I need money and firearms
00:07:56Well General to do all that without money and arms
00:07:59What are you saying?
00:08:00Do those people want to help or not?
00:08:02If they really want to a few sticks and stones would be sufficient
00:08:06Of course they'd be sufficient with you directing the music
00:08:09You mean you don't want to go?
00:08:10Why don't you go?
00:08:11I don't want to see myself in cartoons
00:08:13Hear people say that out of conceit I lied to Garabaldi
00:08:18Blessed Florentines
00:08:19Do nothings and cowards
00:08:25Don't listen to him
00:08:26We all know what he's like
00:08:28Never manages to be calm for long
00:08:31Anyway at this moment
00:08:33He's only useful for attracting attention elsewhere
00:08:40We'll talk about it tomorrow
00:08:41Yes General but
00:08:42Will you also take care to leave me your address?
00:08:49But tonight you must sleep over there on that couch
00:08:52Gotta tell you the truth
00:08:53I ought to go back to Alessandria
00:08:55If I don't show up at barracks I'll be considered a desert
00:08:59Don't worry about it
00:09:01You're staying with me
00:09:04Do you know where we're bound?
00:09:05No General
00:09:08We're bound for Sicily
00:09:10Sicily?
00:09:12Palermo has risen
00:09:14The revolt is spreading over the island
00:09:18The Bourbon Kingdom is falling to pieces
00:09:22And then all roads do lead to Rome
00:09:26I don't know how a road going through Sicily can be the most erect
00:09:30And I doubt whether it is the smoothest road
00:09:34Italians
00:09:35The Sicilians are battling the enemies of Italy for Italy
00:09:39Italians
00:09:40Every citizen has the duty to go to their aid
00:09:43With words and guns and money
00:09:47Above all with force of decision
00:09:49A host of brave soldiers
00:09:51My tried companions on the field of furious battle
00:09:54Are marching with me to the rescue
00:09:56Italy knows who they are
00:09:58They're the same men who have never failed us in the hour of peril
00:10:01True hearted and brave comrades
00:10:04They have dedicated their lives to their homeland
00:10:08They will give her their last drop of blood
00:10:10Without thought of other reward than a stainless conscience
00:10:18Italy and Victor Emmanuel
00:10:19That was their cry when they crossed the Ticino
00:10:22Italy and Victor Emmanuel
00:10:24Will fill the air of Sicily from cavern to mountain peak
00:10:29At this fateful call to war
00:10:32Echoing from the northern ranges of Italy to Rome itself
00:10:35The tottering throne of tyranny will fall
00:10:38And to a man
00:10:39The courageous sons of Sicily will rise in triumph
00:10:44To arms
00:10:46Once and for all put an end to the misery of so many centuries
00:10:49Be it proved to all the world, O Roman children
00:10:53That your living in this, our Italy
00:10:55Has not been a lie
00:10:57Hooray!
00:11:02Excuse me, I'm a newspaper man
00:11:04It's urgent
00:11:05I was here before you were
00:11:06Yes, you were, please
00:11:12One moment, please
00:11:16Listen to what's in this telegram
00:11:17Times, London
00:11:19Garibaldi embarked tonight with an army of 1,000 volunteers
00:11:21On two ships Vixio requisitioned
00:11:23Stop
00:11:26Feelings in diplomatic and political circles running high
00:11:28Stop
00:11:29We'll send details
00:11:30Quick, put it ahead of the others
00:11:40The march toward Italian unity was underway
00:11:44All over Italy
00:11:44All over Europe
00:11:46People held their breath in suspense
00:11:49Cabour and Victor Emmanuel
00:11:50Had not been informed of the attack on Sicily
00:11:53Although Garibaldi had used the king's name as his rallying cry
00:11:56Would he still be faithful to monarchy if he conquered Sicily?
00:12:02From Naples, the young Bourbon king sent one of his older and supposedly more experienced generals named Landy
00:12:08To meet the 1,000 volunteers and stop them from bringing aid to the patriots in Palermo and throughout the
00:12:14island
00:12:16I've come to tell your excellency everything we've been able to learn
00:12:19The brigands disembarked at Marsala towards midday on the 11th of May
00:12:24That much is known by everyone
00:12:26Their army has around 1,000 men, most of them ordinary people
00:12:30They say a few are wearing strange uniforms, but ordinary people still
00:12:34And it's said, uh, they're commanded by a certain, a certain, uh, Garubardo
00:12:41They're not too sure of what he's called
00:12:43Oh, yes they are
00:12:45Garibaldi
00:12:45Your excellency knows everything then, huh?
00:12:48Don't you worry about what I know
00:12:49You tell me what you know, if you please
00:12:51Oh, they're badly armed, your excellency
00:12:53That much I can guarantee you
00:12:55Got two very old cannons
00:12:56And a couple of big guns, a lot older even
00:12:59They loaded them onto carts they stole at Marsala
00:13:01And now they're having trouble hauling them
00:13:04Yes, sir
00:13:04And last night they slept at Rampigallo
00:13:07On the land of Baron Mistretta
00:13:10His nephew, Antonio Forte, is his name, your excellency
00:13:14And, don't believe I won't catch up with him, your excellency
00:13:17When the time comes for traitors
00:13:19Well, anyway, this Forte gave them a pile of supplies
00:13:22Enough to last them the whole week
00:13:23And where are they right now?
00:13:24Along the road to Saleni, excellency
00:13:26Are you telling the truth?
00:13:28Your excellency, my word of honor
00:13:29This is where they are, General
00:13:36Adamo, Adamo
00:13:38Garibaldi's at Salemi
00:13:39Round up everybody you can
00:13:41Go down to the mill and get all of the flour
00:13:43Quick!
00:13:47Turidu
00:13:49Turidu
00:13:50Here I am, what is it?
00:13:52To the mill, quick!
00:13:53I'm going to Garibaldi at Salemi
00:13:55Peputo
00:13:59Get down to the mill, quick!
00:14:04Throw that one over there
00:14:12Another guard up there!
00:14:13Go on, go on, he'll lead you to the hiding place!
00:14:16Come on, quick!
00:14:23This way!
00:14:25Police, run!
00:14:26And don't try to pretend that you were ignorant of these peasants intention to attack and sack that mill
00:14:32I'm a military tactician, not a policeman
00:14:34But I should send you to the firing squad
00:14:36And father, that goes for you too
00:14:38Yes, father
00:14:39We've got a belly full of priests and friars
00:14:42Stirring up rebellion against his majesty
00:14:45Fine religion you're teaching the people
00:14:48I can't see how we're supposed to be responsible to you in such things
00:14:52And may I also remind you that I don't accept observations from anyone else but my bishop
00:14:58Well now
00:15:00We'll soon be
00:15:02Hearing you quote St. Thomas on the rights of people to assassinate tyrants, won't we?
00:15:07I don't believe I have to quote him, you already know what he says
00:15:11Fine!
00:15:13Starting from today, if my troops don't get the flour they need
00:15:15The two of you will answer for it
00:15:17You may go
00:15:24Bring in that captain again
00:15:25Yes, sir
00:15:33Excellency
00:15:35Garibaldi and his outlaws have left Selenia and are going towards Vita
00:15:58That's it there, General
00:16:00That's the road that goes to Palermo
00:16:03Between here and there
00:16:05The land lies all the same way
00:16:07Up and down hills and mountains
00:16:11You see that hill over there?
00:16:13The one where my men are?
00:16:15Right
00:16:16Well above it and behind is Calatafimi
00:16:19See?
00:16:21It's the town where General Landy and his troops arrived last night
00:16:24Are there many troops?
00:16:26Yes, sir
00:16:29What are they doing?
00:16:31Those vagabonds
00:16:31Are they eating?
00:16:33Looks like they've come down here for a picnic
00:16:35Well, we'll give them a better appetite
00:16:37Make their stomachs bigger by a hole or two
00:16:39Or give them a shot to help them digest
00:16:42Look at them, look at them
00:16:44Rag pickers, scum
00:16:48Here's some bread, a piece of cheese and a few olives
00:16:50Fine for me
00:16:55Thanks
00:16:56Does anyone happen to have some salt?
00:16:58Sure, General
00:17:00Here's some
00:17:01Any thanks
00:17:07This Sicilian bread is good
00:17:19They blow a good bugle, don't they?
00:17:22Why don't I let them hear our sounds?
00:17:24Where's my bugler?
00:17:28General, I've explored the terrain
00:17:29Scaling that hill is hard labor
00:17:31And scaling those terraces is impossible
00:17:33Do you want to accept combat here?
00:17:34Yes, certainly
00:17:35Ah, but Bixio
00:17:37The terrain is difficult
00:17:39But it's favorable
00:17:40The fact it's uphill won't allow the enemy to use to best advantage the forces he's strongest in
00:17:44Rifles and artillery
00:17:46Besides Bixio
00:17:48We make Italy now
00:17:50Or we die
00:17:57Bugles!
00:17:58Let those soldiers hear the sound of our alarm clock
00:18:11And now my friends it's time to give those boobin gentlemen over there a couple of whacks
00:18:15General, you want me to call back that fool?
00:18:20Let him go, he has a right to his inspiration
00:18:22Look, it's midday to the minute
00:18:24I don't want anyone to shoot without my specific order
00:18:27To fire from a distance is a sign of fear
00:18:36Look at them, they can't stand still for an instant
00:18:38Get you, get you, get you!
00:18:40Get you, get you!
00:18:47Get you, get you!
00:18:51Get you, get you!
00:18:52Get up the highway, you're running!
00:19:00Get you!
00:19:05You can, get you!
00:19:21Right in the way, girl!
00:19:26Giuseppe Garibaldi, don't despise this monk's habit I'm wearing,
00:19:30because I tell you in truth, it will be stronger than your armor.
00:19:33And don't despise this crucifix.
00:19:35You'll see it flash among the enemy more terrible than your sword.
00:19:38God bless you.
00:20:04What do I carry?
00:20:12Did you communicate to Major Swartzer, my order, to deploy his troops and make your contact with the enemy?
00:20:19Yes, I did, excellency.
00:20:21Well, what's the Major doing then?
00:20:24Come on.
00:20:31Major, they're coming up the hill like devils.
00:20:33We've got to have reinforcements.
00:20:35Keep calm, Lieutenant.
00:20:36Let him get tired first.
00:20:38Then I'll order the counterattack.
00:20:47Quick, take this message to General Landy.
00:20:49Need reinforcements immediately.
00:20:50Good at all.
00:20:54We've got two dessas and then K
00:21:23Get to the ground!
00:21:59What have you done, men? Didn't I tell you you must go to the enemy easy? Get your lines in
00:22:06order! Get your wind back! They do exactly what I tell you!
00:22:10General, they've captured your flag! They've captured your flag!
00:22:14That's nothing at all! Nothing! Some gun is up the hill in that direction!
00:22:28Aim! Aim before you shoot! Take aim, I tell you! Don't waste your ammunition! They're running short! Look at them!
00:22:44Your Excellency, Major Sforza sent you this flag that was taken from the enemy and says to inform you that
00:22:49the commander of the invaders has been killed! Major Sforza asked for reinforcements!
00:22:53What do you mean, he's taken the flag? He's finished Garibali and he still wants reinforcements?
00:22:57Bugles, sound the attack!
00:23:10Romuals, sound the attack!
00:23:13Come here!
00:23:21Follow me!
00:23:35Now is the moment, men!
00:23:37Get up there!
00:23:39Get up over that carriage!
00:23:43Come here, go!
00:23:53And then went out!
00:23:57Go!
00:25:23Well, look, Giuseppe Garibaldi.
00:25:26Look at all we've been able to do.
00:25:27Brave boys.
00:26:11They're leaving town.
00:26:13They'll feed it.
00:26:23They'll be right back.
00:27:55They're seriously wounded, and we trust your compassion.
00:27:58Compassion?
00:27:59What do you mean, compassion?
00:28:01Aren't your wounded soldiers men like us?
00:28:03All Italians?
00:28:04Italians and our brothers?
00:28:07Come and see them.
00:28:25Oh, water.
00:28:49Brave men.
00:28:52You fought bravely.
00:29:07Be sure that you provide the wounded men with every care you possibly can.
00:29:11And tell them that they're free to return to their homes or to fight with us.
00:29:15And they're free to return to their regiments if they like and fight again against us.
00:29:23No, no, please.
00:29:25Please, not that way. We're not the tyrants you used to.
00:29:31We're just human beings who eat and drink like you.
00:29:34We must kiss each other, so.
00:29:36On the cheeks.
00:29:38We're brothers.
00:29:40Italians, people.
00:29:42If my memory serves me right, I think the temple of Sugesta is near here.
00:29:46You learn Latin and Greek in school, eh?
00:29:48Sugesta's not far off, is it?
00:29:50Just a half-hour ride. If you want, we can take you on the donkey.
00:29:52Let's go.
00:30:09Let's go.
00:30:10There it is. We're here.
00:30:14Come on!
00:30:18Come on!
00:30:20Up the hill!
00:30:21Hiya!
00:30:28On foot!
00:30:31Come on!
00:30:40Give me some wine!
00:30:49Hey, let's go!
00:30:55Hey, what are you doing?
00:30:57After all that ride, don't I deserve a drink?
00:30:58Hey, if you really want a drink,
00:31:00I've got some wine from Mount Etna.
00:31:02It'll bend your knees double.
00:31:04You haven't seen anything.
00:31:06You've had enough to drink.
00:31:08Alright, have a drink, but don't take it all, see?
00:31:15Don't lean on me.
00:31:16How can it be that people who were able to put up
00:31:19a temple like this are reduced to such poverty today?
00:31:25Thus casually and unafraid,
00:31:27Garibaldi and his thousand volunteers
00:31:29moved on toward Palermo.
00:31:32A small detachment was sent out in another direction
00:31:35while most of the volunteers,
00:31:37joined by Sicilian patriots,
00:31:39moved through the bush and back country
00:31:41to within sight of the capital.
00:31:48Hold!
00:31:49Who goes there?
00:31:54It's Garibaldi!
00:31:56It's Garibaldi!
00:31:57It's Garibaldi!
00:31:58Come Garibaldi!
00:32:00Come Garibaldi!
00:32:03Come Garibaldi!
00:32:04Come Garibaldi!
00:32:08Come Garibaldi!
00:32:09The diversion has worked!
00:32:11Oh?
00:32:12Look what's in the Palermo newspaper today!
00:32:15Let's see.
00:32:16The soldiers of General Merkel
00:32:19have put to flight Garibaldi's vagabonds
00:32:22along the road to Corleone.
00:32:24The pirates have disappeared into the mountains.
00:32:26The criminals who at the arrival of Garibaldi
00:32:29joined in with his bandits to promote anarchy and murder
00:32:31shall not go free and unpunished.
00:32:33The government of His Majesty the King
00:32:35guarantees to restore the law and order
00:32:37to which good citizens aspire.
00:32:53Palermo!
00:33:04Today, General, I know at last
00:33:06we shall see the end of the rule of tyranny
00:33:08and hypocrisy under which oppression is called
00:33:10liberty, abuse justice,
00:33:11scorn is called love, and declare consciousness...
00:33:14Let's hope so.
00:33:15And now, Bixiog,
00:33:18to Palermo.
00:33:21To Palermo?
00:33:23Or we die, General.
00:33:30Garibaldi is coming!
00:33:31The bandits!
00:33:32Garibaldi and the bandits!
00:33:34Garibaldi!
00:33:34Sound the alarm!
00:33:36Sound the alarm!
00:33:38Sound the alarm!
00:33:40Garibaldi!
00:33:42Garibaldi!
00:33:44Garibaldi!
00:33:46Garibaldi-
00:33:47Garibaldi-
00:33:47They must wait!
00:33:50To begin!
00:33:59Garibaldi!
00:34:04Detailhome,
00:34:05the prisoners to flight!
00:34:08It must wait!
00:34:12Garibaldi-
00:34:13Let's go.
00:35:04Let's go.
00:35:13Let's go.
00:35:14Get over here.
00:35:15Get over here.
00:35:15Get all the furniture.
00:35:19Right.
00:35:21All your houses at your furniture.
00:35:23Nothing for the furniture.
00:35:24Everything you've got.
00:35:26All the boxes.
00:35:27Everything for the furniture.
00:35:29Right.
00:35:30Unload the car.
00:35:31Get over here.
00:35:38Get over here.
00:35:41Get over here.
00:35:43Get over here.
00:35:58Let's go.
00:36:00Get over here.
00:36:26Let's go.
00:36:27Let's go.
00:36:28more for now, thank you. Want water, Garibaldi? No, thank you, my boy. Have you been able to keep
00:36:34track of enemy movements up at the castle? Yes, sir. Ah, my friend! What a good surprise to find
00:36:42you here. You all know my friend, Alexander Dumas. He's the author of the Three Musketeers. Tell me,
00:36:48what sort of past do you have? This one here, signed by Major Jean. Ah, Guzmaroli, make a new
00:36:54safe conduct for this illustrious poet. Put the date of today and say, it is at my
00:36:59orders that my friend, Alexander Dumas, the famous novelist, be allowed to circulate
00:37:03freely throughout the island of Sicily. In addition, you can add that I shall be
00:37:06personally grateful to whoever shows him a courteous welcome. That's why we're
00:37:09stretching it, quick! He's dying! Oh, God, he's dying!
00:37:34Come on!
00:37:58We surrender, we surrender!
00:38:00Oh, are you taking them?
00:38:03I know, because the barricade!
00:38:20The generals are coming to parley! The generals are coming to surrender! Surrender!
00:38:33General, sir, the bourbon officers are here to talk with you.
00:38:54General, the bourbon officers have arrived. Show them in.
00:39:13Good morning, gentlemen.
00:39:18Please be seated.
00:39:27Please, have a seat.
00:39:29After you, sir.
00:39:30Do sit down, please.
00:39:38Guzmaroli.
00:39:46Yes, sir.
00:39:47That's all.
00:39:51Well, then.
00:39:53To what do I owe the honor of your visit?
00:39:56General Garivaldi, we want to put an honorable end to so much suffering.
00:40:00That's exactly what we want to do, too.
00:40:03I'm sorry I don't have any tobacco to offer you, except some bad cigars from Nice.
00:40:08But when in war, one can't have a choice.
00:40:12No, thank you.
00:40:13No, thank you.
00:40:13I don't smoke.
00:40:14Thanks.
00:40:14I don't smoke either.
00:40:17We were saying...
00:40:20General, don't you think it's time all this ended?
00:40:24No one can deny, General Garivaldi, that all this agony, the blood, and barricades doesn't do any good to anyone.
00:40:29And for that reason, we wish that it should cease.
00:40:34Agreed.
00:40:34I'm armed with full powers to negotiate a truce.
00:40:37If we're able to conclude it, we'll go immediately to Naples, where we'll clarify to His Majesty, my Sovereign, the
00:40:43conditions agreed upon and request his commands.
00:40:45General, if we could possibly, how shall I say it, take a shortcut to fair and honorable conditions, so to
00:40:54speak.
00:40:54I am certain, we are certain, that we can stipulate a truce, whereafter, with the help of God, and a
00:41:03little peace, and men's anger placated...
00:41:06Fine. It will never be my fault if this truce isn't stipulated here immediately. Please tell me what your desires
00:41:14are.
00:41:15We've already got them written. Read them, Colonel.
00:41:25That drinking water be restored immediately to the castle. That's the first thing we ask.
00:41:30Fine. Agreed to.
00:41:33That medicines be sent to the castle for the troops that are sick and wounded.
00:41:37With all my heart.
00:41:39That exchange of prisoners must take place immediately.
00:41:42Surely.
00:41:46Will you share this orange with me?
00:41:51Thank you, sir.
00:41:53Yes.
00:41:54But you will have to hand over the hostages taken by General Law in Palermo, and now under guard in
00:41:59the castle.
00:42:01I don't have powers to treat for the hostages.
00:42:04But I assure you on my honor, they're receiving all care, and that his good majesty is sure to put
00:42:08them at liberty, General Garibaldi, the moment I've seen him.
00:42:11You must also evacuate the city.
00:42:13But...
00:42:14Listen to me. I'm telling you what my conditions are now.
00:42:19Evacuate the city.
00:42:22Withdraw your troops from the castle.
00:42:24And I will allow you to make camp at Mount Pellegrino.
00:42:28Agreed, then?
00:42:30Uh...
00:42:30Yes.
00:42:40Garibaldi and his thousand now found that movement along the northern coast of Sicily, over toward the mainland of Italy,
00:42:46was very difficult.
00:42:48The Bourbon troops clung desperately to their last strongholds.
00:42:52But the Garibaldinos drove them out and pushed on to within sight of the Calabrian coast, across the blue strait
00:42:58of Messina.
00:43:01At the lighthouse, the general was forced to wait.
00:43:05Cavour, and perhaps also Victor Emmanuel now, was becoming alarmed by the fact that Republican forces throughout Italy,
00:43:12were using Garibaldi's conquests for their own purposes.
00:43:15Even though he was faithful to United Italy, would he remain faithful to monarchy and refuse to support a republic?
00:44:15Come here.
00:44:16What is it?
00:44:17Look.
00:44:18Look, isn't that the general?
00:44:19Yes, it's Garibaldi.
00:44:27Watch out there.
00:44:29Hey, they must be important.
00:44:35Well, here we are, sir.
00:44:43This way, please.
00:44:54Who's he?
00:44:55Looks like an officer in civilian clothes.
00:45:02Good day, sir.
00:45:06I have the honor to deliver to you a letter from His Majesty.
00:45:15Shh, quiet.
00:45:16Give me a glass of wine.
00:45:17I've got a dry throat.
00:45:18Who is he?
00:45:19An adjutant of King Victor Emmanuel.
00:45:21Oh.
00:45:24You know what the king is asking me to do.
00:45:26He asks you not to cross over the strait.
00:45:29You must know that His Majesty was unable to approve of your expedition,
00:45:33and that he wished to remain completely outside of it.
00:45:37I've always liked Victor Emmanuel.
00:45:40You've gone from one victory to another.
00:45:42We've been told that you've run many risks personally.
00:45:46His Majesty at Torino has been expressing his doubts about attempting to make a landing on the coast of Calabria.
00:45:51Francis II still has a first-rate army,
00:45:54and the Neapolitan navy is one of the best.
00:45:58I in no way deny that there are difficulties.
00:46:04But when a people want their liberty,
00:46:06no soldiers can keep them from getting it.
00:46:12His Majesty writes as your king.
00:46:14Without any hesitation, I can say that if you dare disobey him
00:46:17because others tell you it's your duty to Italy to do so.
00:46:22I've always said that I liked and esteemed Victor Emmanuel.
00:46:26It's a shame that he has such advisors around him.
00:46:32You may tell him.
00:46:39I'll send my reply for His Majesty to where you're staying.
00:46:48Who's Maroli?
00:46:50Who's Maroli?
00:46:52That's me.
00:46:54Hurry.
00:46:55Hurry.
00:47:20What's going on?
00:47:22Wish we could find out.
00:47:23Menotti, you go to your father.
00:47:25Try to find out something.
00:47:26Try to explain to him how we feel.
00:47:28Please.
00:47:30All right.
00:47:36Come in.
00:47:39What is it, Menotti?
00:47:41Nothing.
00:47:44Nothing, father.
00:47:50When are we going to Calabria?
00:47:53When?
00:47:54Yes, when?
00:47:57You see, father, that's what all of us who are sitting around without anything to do are asking.
00:48:02A few hundred feet and there's...
00:48:03A few hundred feet of salt water, I know.
00:48:05But across it they're well fortified.
00:48:07Their artillery is waiting.
00:48:09Twenty thousand men are expecting us.
00:48:10We know that very well.
00:48:11Furthermore, to cross the strait means to take the flames of revolution to the continent of Europe.
00:48:18Did you know that Napoleon III has proposed to the English a joint naval action to block us in Sicily?
00:48:24That's why we've got to be quick and act before they try to...
00:48:26I know, I know, I know, but I don't think that the English are going to do it.
00:48:31You're right that waiting puts us in danger.
00:48:34But in the meantime, I've got other kinds of worries.
00:48:38I'm not going to lead a single soldier of our army to a massacre.
00:48:41Even if we're willing to try anything?
00:48:44The people of Sicily want to be united to Piedmont because they want to be sure that the liberty they've
00:48:49won will not...
00:48:50I know that.
00:48:50And if we let them be annexed, Kavur will send the Piedmontese land forces down here immediately.
00:48:57And goodbye to our united Italy.
00:49:00Father, if you are not willing, who could make a try?
00:49:02I know, we must at least try.
00:49:06But what you don't consider, Minotti, is the weight of all this responsibility.
00:49:11So what now?
00:49:15I think I'll send this reply after all to the king in Kavur.
00:49:22Sire, your majesty is aware of the affection and respect that I have always felt for your person,
00:49:28and that I wish to obey you.
00:49:30But then your majesty will also understand in what a position of embarrassment,
00:49:33in the eyes of the Neapolitan citizens, my inactivity is putting us today.
00:49:38It is now months that I've been having to restrain them,
00:49:40that I've sent them promises of support.
00:49:43All Italy will now turn to me to ask why I'm inactive, and this question will cause us harm.
00:49:47Thus, when I have kept my sacred promises,
00:49:49your majesty will receive from my hands the powers that circumstances have laid there,
00:49:54and I shall obey my king willingly for all the rest of my life.
00:50:00I'll have a copy made of this letter,
00:50:03and send to the man who's just been here.
00:50:09Father.
00:50:19You say your father is certain that our friends over there on the mainland will open the fortress to us?
00:50:25Yes, sir.
00:50:25And suppose we were to fail?
00:50:27We'd have been able to attract a lot of bourbon forces in the direction of the fort,
00:50:31or further on up north, where we could wait.
00:50:34In the meanwhile, you to the south...
00:50:36You're willing to take the risk?
00:50:37Yes, General.
00:50:38As soon as night falls, I start across.
00:50:42During the night, the boy Fabrizio crossed the Strait of Messina alone in a sailing dinghy.
00:50:48A storm swept down on him.
00:50:50He capsized his boat in order not to be driven off his course and was washed ashore in Calabria.
00:50:56He was later found by a peasant girl who was destined to become an unsung heroine of Italian freedom.
00:51:21I found Baron Plutino's sun down on the beach this morning.
00:51:24He told me to tell you.
00:51:25Oh.
00:51:26What shall I do?
00:51:28Go inside and bring out my cape with the hood.
00:51:31The one I wear in church processions.
00:51:34Tonight, there's the procession for St. Rocco.
00:51:36Understand?
00:51:37Yes, Father.
00:51:38Don't let them see the cape.
00:51:40I won't.
00:51:41Be quick.
00:51:42Don't let them see the cape.
00:52:26This way.
00:52:27Last man in, close the door.
00:52:33In here.
00:52:37Come on in.
00:52:42Here we are.
00:52:44Master of the day.
00:52:47Are we all present?
00:52:48All present.
00:52:49Are we all willing to begin the meeting?
00:52:50All are willing.
00:52:52Then your brother and companion, in words of humility, calls the meeting to order.
00:52:55Thank you, friend.
00:52:57Cover your heads.
00:52:58Thank you, friend.
00:53:00Master of the day, in words of humility, your brother and companion requests you to make the circle.
00:53:05There's some boxes to sit on, brothers. Make the circle.
00:53:17The Society of Brothers of Montalbano is waiting for you to speak, friend.
00:53:22I give my thanks to you and all the society.
00:53:24We thank you, brother.
00:53:27Brothers, 250 men sent from Garibaldi are going to cross the Straits of Messina to capture the fortress.
00:53:35Garibaldi is counting on us.
00:53:36Brothers, we must not fail him.
00:53:39We will not fail him.
00:53:41Who's going up the mountain with me?
00:53:42He is.
00:53:43At the top of the mountain, we'll light a bonfire as a signal for the men across the strait to
00:53:49put out to sea.
00:53:50The beach, the town, and the whole coast are patrolled.
00:53:52Everyone's alerted.
00:53:54Policemen, informers, spies, and soldiers are almost everywhere.
00:53:57We've planned on that.
00:53:59When Garibaldi's men are nearing the shore, we want a man to go along the waterfront and draw attention away
00:54:02from the boats in the other direction.
00:54:04The Garibaldinos can land.
00:54:05Some attack the beach guard.
00:54:07Others go to the fort.
00:54:08I'll be the man on the beach.
00:54:10Good.
00:54:11Garibaldi will thank you, brother.
00:54:12Let's go.
00:54:13Wait a minute.
00:54:14You better go out through the orchard.
00:54:16Climb over the wall at the far end, and then he'll show you the safest way.
00:54:19Let's go.
00:54:23We'll make it, eh?
00:54:25Good night.
00:54:27Good night, sir.
00:54:29Good night.
00:54:34A girl who knows her place is not supposed to have ears.
00:54:42We're ready.
00:54:43Soldiers are blocking all the streets.
00:54:44Let's go.
00:54:45Right.
00:54:46Can we begin now, Captain?
00:54:48Begin.
00:55:03Open up.
00:55:05In the name of the law, open up.
00:55:10What do you want?
00:55:11Don't make a move.
00:55:27What are you doing to my father?
00:55:29Quiet, you.
00:55:41Luigi Spezzano, come with me.
00:55:42Why?
00:55:43What have I done?
00:55:43Men with beards end up in prison these days.
00:55:46Maria, give me my shawl.
00:55:47There.
00:55:47Take him away.
00:55:49Go on.
00:55:57Don't leave your sisters, even for a minute.
00:55:59Where are you going?
00:56:00A girl who knows her place is not supposed to have ears.
00:56:05Someone has got to be on the beach.
00:56:08Holy Mother, be with me.
00:56:14Rosa!
00:56:16Shh!
00:56:17You mustn't cry.
00:56:44You mustn't cry.
00:56:50Die in predicamba.
00:56:52You mustn't cry.
00:56:53themselves.
00:57:08They HARIKA
00:57:09They are evil.
00:57:12They Are evil.
00:57:18We mustn't cry.
00:57:48Oh
00:57:58Look! Who goes there?
00:58:34Oh, my God!
00:58:50A mere girl, not quite a woman, assured the success of Garibaldi's landing on the continent of Italy.
00:58:57Further to the south, he and the rest of his men crossed the strait on two steamships,
00:59:03attacked the Bourbon troops unaware, and made them prisoners.
00:59:20He and the West, of the West!
00:59:23He and the West!
00:59:36They and the West!
00:59:41He and the West!
00:59:42They and the West!
00:59:48Oh, my God.
01:00:17Oh, my God.
01:00:44Oh, my God.
01:00:54Oh, my God.
01:01:10They stole our cows from us.
01:01:12They treated us like dogs.
01:01:13Be quiet and listen to me.
01:01:14You soldiers, Italy is ashamed of you.
01:01:17Give back those things you've stolen from these men.
01:01:19We don't want to think of you as conquered enemies.
01:01:22We want to welcome you in our ranks
01:01:24and call you brothers
01:01:25and have you as comrades in still greater
01:01:28and more glorious campaigns.
01:01:30Garibaldi, we want to go back to our houses.
01:01:32We don't want to fight any more battles for anyone.
01:01:34I don't want to fight any more.
01:01:35I want to go back to being a farmer.
01:01:37Quiet.
01:01:38Quiet.
01:01:39Shame to you men of so little faith.
01:01:41Much better if you were enemies instead of cowards.
01:01:44We would treat you as brothers,
01:01:46whereas now we must treat you as losers.
01:01:48Bandi, Sertori, Guzmarori, Minotti.
01:01:51Take care of these men.
01:01:52Don't escape whatever they have.
01:01:54Arms and munitions, horses and mule.
01:01:57Everything they have stolen
01:01:58must be returned to the rightful owners.
01:02:00If any of these Bourbon soldiers
01:02:01want to fight for Italy,
01:02:03undivided and free,
01:02:04welcome them like brothers.
01:02:06We could keep the rest of them prisoners,
01:02:09but instead they can go home.
01:02:11We will not have with us men of little faith
01:02:13who are ungrateful cowards.
01:02:15They can go back to their houses
01:02:17and tell what lenient Philip had promised.
01:02:49So Garibaldi made his way toward Naples
01:02:51where people at the news of his approach
01:02:53either took panic and fled
01:02:55or waited for him anxiously.
01:02:57The young king of Naples bowing to circumstances
01:02:59made a sacrifice in the name of humanity.
01:03:03Your Majesty.
01:03:08You see, my friends, I'm leaving Naples
01:03:10so as to save her from the horrors of war.
01:03:14I've news that Garibaldi is not far away.
01:03:17The faith you've showed to me
01:03:18will never be far from my mind.
01:03:20And so that you will always remember it too,
01:03:23I've named you Knights of St. Gennaro.
01:03:30Don Libo, watch out you don't lose the collar.
01:03:33Sire, I'll do everything to wear it on my breast
01:03:35as long as I can.
01:03:36Don Mickey, my congratulations to you.
01:03:39You've served the country very, very well.
01:03:41And I know that I've been of equal service to Your Majesty.
01:03:44And if Your Majesty could have listened to my humble counsels,
01:03:47you might not find yourself in this position now.
01:03:49Your ideal is Italian Victor Emmanuel,
01:03:52but he won't bring you what you're looking for.
01:03:53We mortals have the short view of a lifetime.
01:03:56What the future holds, only God knows.
01:03:58Your Majesty may leave in peace,
01:03:59certain that our fellow citizens
01:04:01will be mindful always
01:04:03that Your Majesty in leaving the city voluntarily
01:04:05has spared us all the horrors of civil conflict.
01:04:08I hope so, thank you.
01:04:09Her Majesty, the Queen!
01:04:10and H
01:04:50Gentlemen, we'll see each other at the front on the Volturno.
01:05:10We're coming back soon.
01:05:30We're coming back soon.
01:05:46It's so sad to go away.
01:05:48Don't let them see you crying.
01:05:52The very next day, Garibaldi entered Naples without a shock being fired.
01:05:56He was greeted as a liberator, and he assumed leadership of the government just as he had done in Sicily.
01:06:06In the name of all Italians and of all human beings, I give you citizens of Naples my heartfelt thanks.
01:06:15You well have a right to exult and cheer on a day when the tyranny of centuries has come to
01:06:21an end, and liberty has at long last been established.
01:06:24I thank you for this welcome not for myself, but in the name of United Italy, which each of you
01:06:32has helped to create with the labor of your hearts and your hands,
01:06:36so that it is not only Italy, but the whole of Europe, which thanks you.
01:06:57Have you heard the news?
01:06:58What?
01:06:59Troops sent by Victor Emmanuel, which means Cavour, have crossed the frontiers of the Roman states.
01:07:04That's what we were just talking about.
01:07:06It's clear they want to drive down towards Neapolitan territory.
01:07:08Clear as day.
01:07:09Do you think that means that Cavour intends to put us in our place?
01:07:12He wants to stop us from eventually marching on Rome and Venice.
01:07:16And then what?
01:07:17Do you think he's trying to push us into civil war?
01:07:19Oh, Cavour hates us all right.
01:07:20He wants what he wants, and he's willing to beat down any obstacle that gets in his way.
01:07:24He doesn't want to play second to anyone.
01:07:26I can tell you that Garibaldi would die a hundred deaths to avoid a civil war.
01:07:30Cavour will answer for it if one breaks out.
01:07:32When I think that Francis II is pressing harder and harder on the Volturno every day.
01:07:37And now you'll see it'll be worse.
01:07:39The line of the Bourbon troops is solid, from the coast all the way up to Capua.
01:07:42Their forward lines are only three miles north of Caserta, and patrols of cavalry have been raiding even nearer.
01:07:47The Bourbons will try any sort of offensive to retake Naples and not be caught outside their capital by Victor
01:07:52Emmanuel.
01:07:53It's obvious that the men faithful to Cavour want to have Sicily and Naples vote themselves in with united Italy.
01:07:58So the two can be part of the kingdom of Victor Emmanuel, well before Garibaldi can make Rome into his
01:08:04capital.
01:08:19We can expect anything to happen.
01:08:21I'll tell you frankly, I'm even afraid for Garibaldi's life.
01:08:24If anything's possible, anything's possible, getting him out of the way would be convenient to the Bourbons, to Cavour, to
01:08:31Austria, to Napoleon III, to everyone.
01:08:34We can't close our eyes a minute.
01:08:39Garibaldi himself was not troubled by these doubts and fears.
01:08:42Summoned by Bourbon attacks to the banks of the river Volturno, he went into battle with the same spirit of
01:08:48humanity and good faith as always.
01:08:52There you are, General.
01:08:53A lot of Bourbon troops are in Capua.
01:08:55We ought to direct our fire that way.
01:08:57Onboard a city full of defenseless civilians?
01:09:00Better to lose the battle.
01:09:04Don't answer that fire!
01:09:11Don't answer that fire!
01:09:13They're firing from there!
01:09:42Don't answer that fire!
01:10:09Don't trust.
01:10:55Lieutenant!
01:10:57Lieutenant!
01:10:58Get your men up after him!
01:11:00Push him up that hill!
01:11:21Where's Vixio?
01:11:22Under that wall, General.
01:11:24That road.
01:11:25Down there.
01:11:30What happened to you?
01:11:31Nothing, General.
01:11:32They shot my horse from under me.
01:11:34It's nothing.
01:11:35Take care of yourself!
01:11:36Bring me my horse!
01:11:37My horse!
01:11:42Take care of yourself!
01:11:58Take care of yourself!
01:12:07Down to the river, men!
01:12:09Down to the river!
01:12:33We'll cover the boat with cannon!
01:12:39We'll cover the boat with cannon!
01:12:41Fire!
01:12:56Fire!
01:13:10Load those guns!
01:13:18Shoot your fools!
01:13:31In the mist and smoke of the battlefield, with his kingdom in ruins, Francis II stood among his dead and
01:13:39defeated troops, while Victor Emmanuel, whose purposes were still unclear, rode on toward Naples.
01:13:50Cavour has pushed the king toward Naples to control Garibaldi. He's convinced we want to make a republic in Italy,
01:13:55not a monarchy. He's using our victories and discarding us.
01:13:58The truth is that Cavour thinks of Cavour, and is willing to be second only to Victor Emmanuel.
01:14:02Cavour has always urged Victor Emmanuel to get rid of Giuseppe Garibaldi. That's why the king is coming to Naples.
01:14:08They want to take over the kingdom of Naples and Sicily, which we have conquered, thanks to our leader. But
01:14:14we shall march on to Rome!
01:14:17Gentlemen, please. Menotti. Hate and envy and jealousy don't count. What does is for our eyes to be always turned
01:14:30toward the unification of Italy.
01:14:34The battle of the Volturno was a defensive battle, not an offensive one. It saved Naples from a return of
01:14:42the Bourbons, but did not destroy their army, which has a force of 40,000 men north of the Volturno.
01:14:51I know that men who want to make Italy a republic are urging me to attack Rome, which was my
01:14:59intention when I first entered Naples.
01:15:02But can we leave the Bourbons to the rear and go safely forward? My friends, we will go to Rome.
01:15:11There'll be a day for that. It's impossible now.
01:15:20Now is for Italy.
01:15:24I've just written the following decree.
01:15:29Italy and Victor Emmanuel.
01:15:32To fulfil a wish dear to the entire nation, I hereby decree,
01:15:37Sicily and Naples, that owe their liberation to Italian courage,
01:15:41are now part of Italy indivisible and one under its king, Victor Emmanuel, and his descendants.
01:15:49I shall immediately place in the keeping of the king the leadership conferred on me by the nation.
01:15:55My lieutenants are charged with the carrying out. This is my decree.
01:16:02Giuseppe Garibaldi.
01:16:15Let's see what time it is.
01:16:19One of you young men go ahead and see what's happening down the road.
01:16:23After so long a time I'm looking forward to seeing Victor Emmanuel again.
01:16:26Strange. He shouldn't be far off.
01:16:30Since he's coming from Penafaro, he must have spent the night at Trezzanzano.
01:16:34Morning air is damp.
01:16:38Me with his rheumatism.
01:16:42Look. Look how damp it is.
01:16:45General. Yes?
01:16:47Listen.
01:16:50General, he's coming back.
01:16:54Don't you hear the sound of bugles in the distance?
01:16:57General, the king is coming.
01:17:01I heard bugles, then I saw a troop of Piedmontese cavalry.
01:17:03My horse, quick!
01:17:22Professor Petra.
