La guerra è finita

In the remains of post-war Italy, some Holocaust child survivors return to find their former lives gone. Davide Pavia is a freedom fighter trying to locate his family taken by the authorities. Giulia is trying to help the children to redeem her father's involvement in the war. Ben insists on taking the children to Palestine. These three and others take over a school to build a temporary sanctuary in which the real world place hosted over eight hundred children.

This is a compelling limited series based on a real historical story. The fictionalization does go overboard at times. There is a bit of convenient story connections. While Davide's search is compelling, it's better to leave it unresolved as I imagine a lot of search ended. The acting is superb. The children are very good and the 'teens' are excellent. This is a very compelling watch.
