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.
00:03:41Hurry.
00:03:55Wait.
00:03:56Ring the bells.
00:03:57Get the flag out!
00:04:05You over there! Ready!
00:04:34Fire!
00:04:37Move out, men!
00:04:40Over there!
00:04:44Get along!
00:04:58Shoot it now!
00:05:20Attention, right!
00:05:22Right about face!
00:05:25Front rank, kneel!
00:05:27Ready!
00:05:29Aim!
00:05:32Fire!
00:05:37I'm not dead!
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!
00:05:45Now you're free!
00:05:52The cries of these martyrs to freedom and national unity
00:05:56were 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, but who were now in other armies,
00:06:35he sent his trusted agents to find out which ones were willing to leave everything and fight with him again.
00:07:04Here he is! We've brought him!
00:07:05Oh, Giuseppe Garibaldi! It's good to see you!
00:07:08I'm glad to find you well, General.
00:07:10Hello, Nino.
00:07:11Hello, Nino.
00:07:13Gussmaroli, I can imagine, has told you why you're here.
00:07:15No.
00:07:16Sit down, then.
00:07:18I was sitting in a cafe in Alessandria when I found him standing in front of me.
00:07:22The General wants you. Come on!
00:07:23He didn't even allow me to go home.
00:07:24He dragged me to the station, pushed me onto the first train, and here I am.
00:07:27May I go now, General?
00:07:28Yes.
00:07:29Dixio.
00:07:31You've never lost contact with your companions in Siena?
00:07:34Of course not.
00:07:36Then you must go down there to make recruits.
00:07:39Push all the way down the valley into Umbria.
00:07:42Win over everyone that's possible.
00:07:45Push onto 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, in general, they'd do all that without money and arms.
00:07:59What are you saying?
00:08:00Do those people want to help or not?
00:08:03If 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.
00:08:27We all know what he's like.
00:08:28Never manages to be calm for long.
00:08:31Anyway, at this moment, he's only useful for attracting attention elsewhere.
00:08:40We'll talk about it tomorrow.
00:08:41Yes, general, but-
00:08:43Will 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.
00:09:21And 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.
00:09:41Every citizen has the duty to go to their aid, with words and guns and money.
00:09:47Above all, with force of decision.
00:09:49A host of brave soldiers, my tried companions on the field of furious battle, are marching with me to the
00:09:55rescue.
00:09:57Italy knows who they are.
00:09:58They're the same men who have never failed us in the hour of peril.
00:10:02True-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, without thought of other reward than a stainless conscience.
00:10:18Italy and Victor Emmanuel, that was their cry when they crossed the Ticino.
00:10:23Italy and Victor Emmanuel will fill the air of Sicily from cavern to mountain peak.
00:10:29At this fateful call to war, echoing from the northern ranges of Italy to Rome itself, the tottering throne of
00:10:37tyranny will fall.
00:10:38And to a man, the courageous sons of Sicily will rise in triumph.
00:10:44To arms, once 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, that your living in this, our Italy, has not been
00:10:57a lie.
00:10:57Hooray!
00:11:02Excuse me. I'm a newspaper man. It'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.
00:11:18Times, London.
00:11:19Garibaldi embarked tonight with an army of 1,000 volunteers on two ships Bixio requisitioned.
00:11:23Stop. Believe General wants to set his compass for Sicily. Stop.
00:11:26Feelings in diplomatic and political circles running high. Stop.
00:11:29We'll send details.
00:11:30Quick, put it ahead of the others.
00:11:40The march toward Italian unity was underway.
00:11:43All over Italy, all over Europe, people held their breath in suspense.
00:11:49Cabour and Victor Emmanuel had not been informed of the attack on Sicily.
00:11:53Although Garibaldi had used the king's name as his rallying cry, would he still be faithful to monarchy if he
00:12:00conquered Sicily?
00:12:01From Naples, the young Bourbon king sent one of his older and supposedly more experienced generals, named Landy, to meet
00:12:09the 1,000 volunteers and stop them from bringing aid to the patriots in Palermo and throughout the island.
00:12:16I've come to tell your excellency everything we've been able to learn.
00:12:20The 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.
00:12:31They 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.
00:12:41Garubardo. They're not too sure of what he's called.
00:12:43Oh, yes they are. Garibaldi.
00:12:46Your excellency knows everything then, huh?
00:12:47Don't you worry about what I know. You tell me what you know, if you please.
00:12:51Oh, they're badly armed, your excellency. That much I can guarantee you.
00:12:55Got two very old cannons and a couple of big guns, a lot older even.
00:12:59They loaded them onto carts they stole at Marsala, and now they're having trouble hauling them.
00:13:04Yes, sir. And last night, they slept at Rampigallo, on 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, when the time comes for traitors.
00:13:19Well, anyway, this Forte gave them a pile of supplies enough 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?
00:13:27Oh, your excellency, my word of honor.
00:13:30This is where they are, General.
00:13:35Adamo! Adamo!
00:13:38Garibaldi's at Salemi.
00:13:40Round up everybody you can. Go down to the mill and get all of the flour. Quick!
00:13:47Turidu! Turidu!
00:13:50Here I am. What is it?
00:13:52To the mill, quick!
00:13:53I'm going to Garibaldi at Salemi.
00:13:55Pepputo!
00:13:59Get down to the mill, quick!
00:14:03Throw that one over there.
00:14:12Another guard up here! Quick!
00:14:14Go on, go on! He'll lead you to the hiding place!
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, but 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, stirring up rebellion against his majesty.
00:14:46Fine religion you're teaching to people!
00:14:49I can't see how we're supposed to be responsible to you in such things.
00:14:53And may I also remind you that I don't accept observations from anyone else but my bishop.
00:14:58Well, now, we'll soon be hearing 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! Starting from today, if my troops don't get the flour they need, the two of you will answer for
00:15:17it!
00:15:17You may go!
00:15:24Bring in that captain again.
00:15:25Yes, sir.
00:15:34Excellency, Garibaldi and his outlaws have left Selenie and are going towards Vita.
00:15:58That's it there, General. That's the road that goes to Palermo.
00:16:03Between here and there, the land lies all the same way, up 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 Kalatafimi.
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?
00:16:30Those vagabonds. Are they eating?
00:16:33Looks like they've come down here for a picnic.
00:16:35Well, we'll give them a better appetite. Make their stomachs bigger by a hole or two.
00:16:40Or give them a shot to help them digest.
00:16:42Look at them. Look at them. Rag 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. Scaling that hill is hard labor and scaling those terraces is impossible.
00:17:33Do you want to accept combat here?
00:17:34Yes, certainly.
00:17:36Ah, 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!
00:19:01Look at them! They can't stand still for an instant!
00:19:03Fire!
00:19:10Fire!
00:19:10Fire!
00:19:13Let the wife.
00:19:22Amen.
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?
00:20:12Didn't you communicate to Major's force of my order to deploy his troops,
00:20:17but 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. Let him get tired first.
00:20:37Then I'll order the counterattack.
00:20:47Quick, take this message to General Landy.
00:20:49Need reinforcements immediately.
00:21:19immediately.
00:21:23I'm going to get to that side!
00:21:59what have you done men didn't i tell you you must go to the enemy easy get your eyes in

00:26:11They're leaving town.
00:26:12They'll feed it.
00:26:47They'll feed it.
00:27:12They'll feed it.
00:27:14They'll feed it.
00:27:14They'll feed it.
00:27:15They'll feed it.
00:27:16They'll feed it.
00:27:33They'll feed it.
00:28:02They'll feed it.
00:28:06They'll feed it.
00:28:07They'll feed it.
00:28:09They'll feed it.
00:28:11They'll feed it.
00:28:28They'll feed it.
00:28:49Brave men, you fought bravely.
00:28:53Brave men, you 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, please, 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, on the cheeks.
00:29:38We're brothers, Italians, 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?
00:29:48Suggest is 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.
00:29:53Let's go.
00:30:05Let's go.
00:30:08Let'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!
00:33:44Garibaldi!
00:33:54Garibaldi!
00:33:57Garibaldi!
00:34:01Garibaldi!
00:34:02Garibaldi!
00:34:03Garibaldi!
00:34:04Garibaldi!
00:34:05Garibaldi!
00:34:06Garibaldi!
00:34:07Garibaldi!
00:34:08Garibaldi!
00:34:09Garibaldi!
00:34:10Garibaldi!
00:34:11Garibaldi!
00:34:11Garibaldi!
00:34:12Garibaldi!
00:34:12Garibaldi!
00:34:13Garibaldi!
00:34:14Oh, my God.
00:39:13Good morning, gentlemen.
00:39:55General Garibaldi, we'll be right back.
00:40:15We were right back.
00:40:43and request his commands. General, if we could possibly, how shall I say it, take a shortcut to
00:40:52fair and honorable conditions, so to speak. I am certain, we are certain, that we can stipulate a
00:40:59truce, whereafter, with the help of God, and a little peace, and men's anger placated. Fine.
00:41:07It will never be my fault if this truce isn't stipulated here immediately. Please tell me
00:41:13what your desires are. We'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. Fine, agreed to.
00:41:33That medicines be sent to the castle for the troops that are sick and wounded. With all my heart.
00:41:39That exchange of prisoners must take place immediately. Surely.
00:41:46Will you share this orange with me? Thank you.
00:41:51Thank you, sir. Yes, but you will have to hand over the hostages taken by General Lahr in Palermo,
00:41:57and now under guard in the castle. I don't have powers to treat for the hostages,
00:42:03but I assure you on my honor they're receiving all care, and that his good majesty is sure to put
00:42:08them
00:42:09at liberty, General Garibaldi, the moment I've seen him.
00:42:11You must also evacuate the city. But...
00:42:13Listen 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
00:42:25to 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,
00:42:44over toward the mainland of Italy, was 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.
00:43:00At the lighthouse, the general was forced to wait.
00:43:05Cavour, and perhaps also Victor Emmanuel now,
00:43:08was 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,
00:43:19would he remain faithful to monarchy and refuse to support a republic?
00:43:45For their maintenance in the world which they've got theiroli.
00:43:53O郭media with his
00:43:54Listen to me.
00:43:57Keep the sun heading back to the south and people
00:44:01And his youth picture said
00:44:08And I will save my newsletter
00:44:11This morning.
00:44:14What he turned to my house
00:44:15what is it look look isn't that the general yes it's Garibaldi watch out

00:45:20Emmanuel
00:45:24you know what the king is asking me to do he asks you not to cross over the strait
00:45:29you must know that his majesty was unable to approve of your expedition and that he he wished to remain
00:45:35completely outside of it I've always liked Victor Emmanuel you've gone from one victory
00:45:41to another we've been told that you've run many risks personally his majesty at Torino has been
00:45:47expressing his doubts about attempting to make a landing on the coast of Calabria Francis the second
00:45:52still has a first-rate army and the Neapolitan Navy is one of the best I in no way deny
00:46:00that there are
00:46:02difficulties but when a people want their liberty no soldiers can keep them from getting it
00:46:12his majesty writes as your king without any hesitation I can say that if you dare disobey him because
00:46:17others 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
00:46:30thank you you may tell him
00:46:39I'll send my reply for his majesty to where you'll stay
00:46:49who's my only who's my only that's me hurry

00:47:36I mean
00:47:39What is it Minotti nothing nothing father
00:47:50When are we going to Calabria
00:47:53When yes when
00:47:57You see father
00:47:58that's what all of us who are sitting around without anything to do or asking
00:48:02a few hundred feet and there's a few hundred feet of salt water I know
00:48:05but across it they're well fortified
00:48:07their artillery is waiting
00:48:0820,000 men are expecting us
00:48:10we know that very well
00:48:11furthermore
00:48:12to cross the strait means to take the flames of revolution
00:48:15to the continent of Europe
00:48:18did you know that Napoleon the third
00:48:20has 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
00:48:27I know I know
00:48:29but I don't think that the English are going to do it
00:48:31you're right that waiting puts us in danger
00:48:33but in the meantime
00:48:36I'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
00:48:47because they want to be sure that the liberty they've won will not
00:48:50I know that
00:48:50and if we let them be annexed
00:48:52Kabor will send the Piedmontese land forces down here immediately
00:48:57and goodbye to our united Italy
00:49:00father if you're not willing who could make a try
00:49:02I know we must at least try
00:49:06but what you don't consider menotti
00:49:08is the weight of all this responsibility
00:49:11so what now
00:49:15I think I'll send this reply after all
00:49:18to the king in Kavur
00:49:22Sire
00:49:22your majesty is aware of the affection and respect
00:49:25that I have always felt for your person
00:49:28and that I wish to obey you
00:49:29but then your majesty will also understand
00:49:32in what a position of embarrassment
00:49:33in the eyes of the Neapolitan citizens
00:49:35my inactivity is putting us today
00:49:37it is now months that I've been having to restrain them
00:49:40that I've sent them promises of support
00:49:42all Italy will now turn to me to ask why I'm inactive
00:49:45and 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
00:49:52the powers that circumstances have laid there
00:49:54and I shall obey my king willingly
00:49:56for 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

00:50:21that our friends over there on the mainland
00:50:23will open the fortress to us
00:50:24yes sir
00:50:25and suppose we were to fail
00:50:27we'd have been able to attract a lot of urban forces
00:50:30in the direction of the fort
00:50:31or further on up north
00:50:32where 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
00:50:37as soon as night falls
00:50:39I start across
00:50:41during the night
00:50:42the boy Fabrizio
00:50:44crossed the Strait of Messina
00:50:45alone in a sailing dinghy
00:50:48a storm swept down on him
00:50:50he capsized his boat
00:50:51in order not to be driven off his course
00:50:53and was washed ashore in Calabria
00:50:56he was later found by a peasant girl
00:50:58who was destined to become
00:51:00an unsung heroine
00:51:01of 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

00:51:28go inside and bring out my cape with the hood

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
00:53:03requests you to make the circle.
00:53:05There's some boxes to sit on, brothers.
00:53:07Make 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.
00:53:28Brothers, 250 men sent from Garibaldi are going to cross the Straits of Messina to capture
00:53:33the 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
00:53:48to put out to sea.
00:53:50The beach, the town, and the whole coast are patrolled.
00:53:52Everyone's alerted.
00:53:53Policemen, 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
00:54:02draw attention away from 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.
00:54:43We're ready.
00:54:43Soldiers are blocking all the streets.
00:54:45Let'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.
00:55:45Maria, give me my shawl.
00:55:47There.
00:55:48Take 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.
00:56:18You mustn't cry.
00:56:46Oh, my God.
00:56:50Oh, my God.
00:57:41Oh, my God.
00:57:58Oh, my God.
00:58:00Oh, my God.
00:58:10Oh, my God.
00:58:34Oh, my God.
00:58:50A mere girl, not quite a woman, assured the success of Garibaldi's landing on the continent
00:58:56of 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.
00:59:07Oh, my God.
00:59:36Oh, my God.
00:59:40Oh, my God.
01:00:07Hold.
01:00:18Hold.
01:00:19Hold, or we'll shoot.
01:00:23Give me that.
01:00:25Take your hand.
01:00:27Take your hand.
01:00:32Oh, speak to the front!
01:00:34Move up these years!
01:00:36Move down!
01:00:37Move down!
01:00:39Go!
01:00:43Go! Go! Stand back!
01:00:49Go!
01:00:52Go!
01:00:53Go!
01:00:55Go!
01:00:56Go! Stand back!
01:01:03Stand back!
01:01:08They stole our muses! They stole everything we got!
01:01:10They stole our cows from us!
01:01:12Be 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 and 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! I want to go back to being a farmer!
01:01:37Quiet! Quiet!
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, Siutori, 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 must be returned to the rightful owners!
01:02:00If any of these bourbon soldiers want to fight for Italy undivided and free,
01:02:04welcome them like brothers!
01:02:06We could keep the rest of them prisoners, but instead they can go home!
01:02:11We will not have with us men of little faith who are ungrateful cowards!
01:02:15They can go back to their houses!
01:02:17They'll not leave you, Felix, I promise you!
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.
01:03:04Your Majesty!
01:03:08You see, my friends, I'm leaving Naples,
01:03:11so 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 will 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 Saint Gennaro.
01:03:30Don Libaud, watch out, you don't lose the collar.
01:03:33Sire, I'll do everything to wear it on my breast as long as I can.
01:03:36Don Miquet, 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,
01:04:00certain that our fellow citizens will 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.
01:04:50Gentlemen, we'll see each other at the front on the Volturno.
01:05:10We're coming back soon.
01:05:20I think it's a huge challenge.
01:05:25You know, I have to ask him as an angel queen.
01:05:26I'm so happy about you.
01:05:26I'm so happy about you.
01:05:28I'm so happy about you.
01:05:41I'm so happy about you.
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,
01:06:22and liberty has at long last been established.
01:06:25I thank you for this welcome, not for myself.
01:06:29But in the name of United Italy, which each of you has helped to create with the labor of your
01:06:35hearts 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.
01:07:52It'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.
01:08:25Anything's possible, anything's possible.
01:08:28Getting him out of the way would be convenient to the Bourbons, to Cavour, to Austria, to Napoleon III, to
01:08:34everyone.
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,
01:08:46he went into battle with the same spirit of humanity 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!
01:09:13They're firing from there!
01:09:15Let's go!
01:09:19That's no way!
01:09:20We're firing!
01:09:30That's no way!
01:09:38We'll stay.
01:09:38We're firing!
01:09:41It's구.
01:09:41I think we must get the fire from home,
01:09:46Let's go.
01:10:15Let's go.
01:10:55Let's go.
01:10:57Lieutenant!
01:10:59Get your men up after him!
01:11:00Push him up that hill!
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!
01:11:49My horse!
01:11:50Come on!
01:12:07Come on!
01:12:08Down to the river, men!
01:12:09Down to the river!
01:12:10No one ANT kalian!
01:12:17Take care of yourself!
01:12:18Give me your backs!
01:12:20OOL!
01:12:24After the wind!
01:12:27Airbus!
01:12:32We'll cover the boat with cannon!
01:12:40Fire!
01:12:55Fire!
01:12:57Fire!
01:12:58Fire!
01:12:58Fire!
01:13:00Fire!
01:13:10Fire!
01:13:11Fire!
01:13:11Load those guns!
01:13:18Shoot you fools!
01:13:32In the mist and smoke of the battlefield, with his kingdom in ruins, Francis II stood among
01:13:39his dead and defeated troops, while Victor Emmanuel, whose purposes were still unclear,
01:13:46rode on toward Naples.
01:13:50Boris pushed the king toward Naples to control Garibaldi.
01:13:53He's convinced we want to make a republic in Italy, not a monarchy.
01:13:56He'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.
01:14:06That'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
01:14:13to our leader.
01:14:14But we shall march on to Rome.
01:14:16To Rome!
01:14:18Gentlemen, please.
01:14:20Menotti.
01:14:22Hate and envy and jealousy don't count.
01:14:27What does is for our eyes to be always turned toward the unification of Italy.
01:14:34The battle of the Volturno was a defensive battle, not an offensive one.
01:14:40It saved Naples from a return of the Bourbons, but did not destroy their army, which has
01:14:47a 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?
01:15:07My friends, we will go to Rome.
01:15:11There will be a day for that.
01:15:14It's impossible now.
01:15:19Now is for Italy.
01:15:24Italy.
01:15:25I've just written the following decree.
01:15:29Italy and Victor Emmanuel.
01:15:32To fulfill a wish dear to the entire nation, I hereby decree.
01:15:37Sicily and Naples, that owe their liberation to Italian courage, are now part of Italy indivisible
01:15:44and 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
01:15:54the nation.
01:15:55My lieutenants are charged with the carrying out of this my decree.
01:16:03Giuseppe Garibaldi.
01:16:14Let'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.
01:16:27Strange.
01:16:28He shouldn't be far off.
01:16:31Since he's coming from Penafaro, he must have spent the night at Trezzanzano.
01:16:34The morning air is damp.
01:16:38Me with his rheumatism.
01:16:42Look.
01:16:43Look how damp it is.
01:16:45General.
01:16:46Yes?
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!
01:17:06My horse, quick!
01:17:11Homemen, the green guy's face.
01:17:14That's right.
01:17:21I had to kill you.
01:17:22No, no, no, no.
01:17:25If you have no idea.
01:17:25No, no, no.
01:17:25No, no, no, no.
01:17:25No, no, no.
01:17:28No, no.
01:17:36That was too late.
01:18:10I salute the first king of Italy.
01:18:14How are you, Garibaldi?
01:18:16Well, your majesty.
01:18:17And you?
01:18:19Fine. Fine.
01:18:21Sire, when I landed on Sicilian soil, I assumed the military leadership and did it in your name.
01:18:28This morning, I'm fulfilling a dream dear in my heart.
01:18:31I'm placing in your hands the leadership of millions of Italians,
01:18:34who until a few months ago were subject to a stupid despotism.
01:18:40Long live the king! Long live the king of Italy!
01:18:45This is Victor Emmanuel, our king, the king of Italy!
01:18:51Long live the king!
01:18:53This is Victor Emmanuel, our king!
01:19:03Francis II, and the soldiers who have remained faithful to him,
01:19:06are getting ready to give battle once more near Gaeta.
01:19:09I ask your majesty to grant the honor of the first attack to my men and to myself.
01:19:15You've been at it a long time, Garibaldi.
01:19:17Now it's my turn to attack.
01:19:19Your army is tired and mine is fresh.
01:19:22We're going to put you into the reserves.
01:19:50We're going to put you into the reserves.
01:20:18Why, it's Garibaldi.
01:20:22Hello.
01:20:25Hello.
01:20:27Would you give me some water, please?
01:20:29Sure, Garibaldi.
01:20:30Sure, General Garibaldi.
01:20:31It's an honor.
01:20:32If you'll let me, I'll give you something to eat, too.
01:20:34Have a chair.
01:20:43Here you are.
01:20:44Fresh cheese just made yesterday.
01:20:46Got some for you gentlemen, too.
01:20:48Put it on this stool, gentlemen.
01:21:06He really said it.
01:21:08Really.
01:21:11And now we're going to put you in the reserves.
01:21:24There was now nothing left for Giuseppe Garibaldi but to return to his house on the island of Caprera.
01:21:31He could have taken Rome easily and made it the capital of United Italy.
01:21:36But political power stronger than he had willed that the time for that had not yet come.
01:21:43But people would never forget him.
01:21:45They would remember the exile of Caprera in their hearts.
01:21:51And he, the glorious old man, what would he be thinking of in his solitude?
01:21:57Was it possible?
01:22:02It's so confusing.
01:22:02That is wrong.
01:22:02No?
01:22:02No?
01:22:12No?
01:22:18No?
01:22:20No?
01:22:20No?
01:22:21No?
01:22:23No?
01:22:24No?
01:22:25No?
01:22:26No?
01:22:55We'll meet again.
01:22:56In Rome.
01:23:29In Rome.
01:23:45In Rome.
01:23:49In Rome.
01:23:52In Rome.
01:23:53In Rome.
01:23:55In Rome.
01:23:56In Rome.
01:24:01In Rome.
01:24:01I'll see you next time.
