A past that speaks to the present and a present that fears the future. This is the story of Salvatore Todaro, the commander of the submarine “Cappellini”, who in 1940 sank an armed enemy merchant ship in the Atlantic. Todaro then rescued the shipwrecked crew and, in accordance with the laws of the sea and at great risk, brought them to a safe harbor. The opening film, Comandante by Edoardo De Angelis, starring Pierfrancesco Favino, now holds an ethical significance that needs no emphasis.
