Add to wishlist DetailsExisting reviews During the Second World War, the sailors onboard a battleship of the Royal Italian Navy maintain a regular correspondence with female penpals. The stoker Augusto Basso exchanges his letters with a young woman named Elena, a teacher in an elementary school. Elena has split a medal into two halves, keeping hers and sending one to the young seaman. The two are to meet for the first time at a train station in Taranto; but just as Augusto is to go on leave, the ship suddenly sails off to take part in the naval battles at Calabria and Capo Teulada. During the battle, many sailors are wounded, including Augusto, who must undergo surgery. He is transferred to the hospital ship "Arno" and entrusted to the care of volunteer nurses ... one of whom just happens to be Elena. Durante la seconda guerra mondiale, i marinai imbarcati su una nave da battaglia della Regia Marina Italiana, intrattengono una fitta corrispondenza epistolare con le madrine di guerra. Il marò fuochista Augusto Basso scambia le sue lettere con Elena Fondi, una maestrina di scuola elementare. Elena ha diviso in due pezzi una medaglietta, metà l'ha tenuta lei e metà l'ha inviata ad Augusto. I due si danno appuntamento alla stazione ferroviaria di Taranto, ma quando Augusto sta per sbarcare, la nave salpa improvvisamente per prendere parte ai combattimenti di Punta Stilo e di Capo Teulada. Durante i combattimenti, molti marinai vengono feriti tra cui lo stesso Basso che deve subire un intervento chirurgico. Caricato sull'idrovolante sanitario viene trasferito sulla nave ospedale Arno e affidato alle cure delle Infermiere del Corpo Volontario. Tra queste vi è anche Elena. DVD-R is in Italian with switchable English subtiles. Approx. 69 minutes + a 22 minute newsreel. See film sample for audio and video quality.
