Liberation Day - The day of liberation from German occupation in Italy. Eight-year-old Francesca anxiously asks her grandpa Roberto why he has been living in Berlin with the "bad Germans" for years. Journalist Roberto Giardina shares his experiences with his chosen homeland, recounting German history, everyday curiosities, and Teutonic peculiarities, first to the girl and later to the young woman, sometimes seriously and sometimes with a wink. A prominent expert and observer of German-Italian ties and concerns also contributes to the narrative.
