Details

Set in a small Italian town in the threadbare years just after the war, the parish priest, Don Camillo, and the communist mayor, Peppone, represent the two poles of Italian life - the Catholic Church and the Communist Party. They stoop to skullduggery and worse to get one over on the other. But their public show of hostility conceals a deeper collaboration to defend a value more important than their respective ideologies - their shared humanity. With an original score The Little World of Don Camillo sweeps you off your feet and back fifty years to the Po Valle and a world full of hope that peace will last.
