Description:

Spectactular epic-historical film on the figure of the Renaissance condottiero Giovanni delle Bande Nere, portrayed as a war genius who fights heroically against the foreign oppression, ready to sacrifice his life in the name of a patriotic ideal. It is the outcome of an Italian-German cinematographic alliance, analogous to the political one, and clearly a film of indirect propaganda.
