Story
Lidia De Angelis ha tenuto un profilo basso da quando le leggi razziali di Mussolini l’hanno strappata dal suo primo amore. Ma quando i tedeschi occupano Venezia nel 1943, è costretta a scappare dalla città per salvare la propria vita. Lidia si unisce ai partigiani sulle montagne del Veneto, dove incontra David, un soldato inglese che combatte per la stessa causa. Man mano che si affeziona a lui, le dure rappresaglie tedesche e le appassionate attività patriottiche di Lidia minacciano di separarli.

Story
I watch him watching us, imagining how he would take me. I send him the message with my eyes. This is who I am. I am Veronica Franco. I am a COURTESAN. I court the cultural elite for fame and fortune, giving my body to many. And I'm good. So very good. After all, I was taught by my mother, and mother always knows best. How else to please the future King of France than with the imaginative use of Murano glass? How else to fulfill the desires of all yet keep my sense of self-worth?
