again. But Joan knows that her days are numbered...
The American Elisabeth Whitefield arrives in Italy to recover the body
of her husband, Tony, who was killed in 1944 by the Germans. When

girl, and that they had a child, Elisabeth decides to go back home
without the remains of her husband so that he can lie near to the child
he never knew...
