Description

In Nazi-occupied Italy, 1943, ordinary people find extraordinary courage in the face of war. Luca Benedetto joins the partisans to fight against German troops ravaging his town on Lake Como, while struggling to protect his Jewish lover Sarah, who is hiding in a mountain cabin. As the violent occupation intensifies, Luca and Sarah fear for their lives, but also for the safety of their mothers, who are vulnerable to the encroaching Nazis. In this heart-wrenching narrative, the people of Lake Como must decide how much they're prepared to sacrifice for family, friends, and country. Set against the backdrop of Mussolini's deposed rule and Allied armies fighting their way up the peninsula, "Once Night Falls" is a stirring account of courage and resilience in the face of war.
