Plot summary In the early 1960s, nearly 20 years since the Second World War ended, an Italian general, accompanied by a priest who is also an Italian army colonel, is sent to Albania to locate and collect the bones of his countrymen who had died during the war and return them for burial in Italy. As they organise digs and disinterment, they wonder at the scale of their task. The general talks to the priest about the futility of war and the meaninglessness of the enterprise. As they go deeper into the Albanian countryside they find they are being followed by another general who is looking for the bodies of German soldiers killed in World War II. Like his Italian counterpart, the German struggles with a thankless job looking for remains to take back home for burial, and questions the value of such gestures of national pride.

  1. Army General Staff Plot

    The Army General Staff Plot was a failed 1948 attempt to overthrow the Thai government of Field Marshal Plaek Phibunsongkhram . The plotters were members of the Army General Staff, among whom were Lieutenant General Chit Mansin Sinatyotharak, Pridi s former supreme commander, and Major General Net Khemayothin, a close associate of Phibun during the war and later a prominent Free Thai Movement Seri Thai member. They objected to the army s increasingly corrupt and inefficient leadership, and hoped to reorganise and professionalise the military. Their plan called for the arrest of Phibun, top government officials, and leading army officers during a birthday party for Sarit Thanarat scheduled on October 1, 1948. Although the plotters enjoyed widespread support within the General Staff, the 1947 Coup Group Thailand Coup Group which had re installed Phibun received advance notice of their plans. On September 21 General Phin Choonhavan Phin Chunhawan recommended that the Ministry of Defence and other ministries carry out a purge of government officials. His suggestion was approved by the cabinet, and on October 1 the arrests of the coup plotters began. Before the week was over, more than fifty army and reservist and several prominent supporters of Pridi were arrested.
