Before
being
the
story
of
a
simple
physical
journey,
LA
MEMORIA
DEGLI
ULTIMI
i s
much
rather
an
emotional
ride. Tthis
work
deeply
sinks
back
into
the
memory
of
both
War
and
Resistance,
through
eyes
and
lives
of
seven
former
partisans.
At
first,
the
physical
journey
deals
with
seeking
the
last
surivors
of
the
Resistance,
but
soon
it
turns
out
to
be
an
emotional
path
across
feelings,
memories
and
emotions,
all
belonging
to
a
generaJon
who
firmly
hoped
and
believed
in
the
future.
Those
people
sacrificed
their
youth
to
something
that
was
felt
to
be
too
important
to
be
given
up.
The
characters
are
considered
to
be
“the
last
ones”
because
of
the
unresponsive
and
unenthousiastic
present
we
live
in.
It
seems
that
the
Memory
of
our
Country
has
been
put
aside,
in
order
to
manipulate
it
and
to
wipe
it
out.
The
outcoming
portrait
clearly
and
bitterly
contrasts
with
our
society,
which
is
rid
of
any
awareness
of
its
roots
and
origines.
Did
we
lose
the
meaning
of
values
that
we
should
keep
as
an
everlasting
and
fundamental
teaching?
