Sur Anglique... André de Santis, a young French officer, leaves for the war in despair for the cancelling of his marriage to Jeanne de Chazal. Jeanne entered the convent and became Sister Angélique. André, not far from the convent, was mortally wounded. He wrote to Jeanne asking her to come and receive his last breath. But the rule was strict, and Sister Angélique could not leave the convent. However, the statue of the Virgin before which Jeanne was prostrating came to life, descended from its pedestal, and took on the appearance of Sister Angélique, seemingly granting her the permission she had refused. Jeanne then went to close her ex-fiancé's eyes and then returned to the convent, where the Virgin resumed her original form.

Alm-Fronteiras... Documentary with testimonials from survivors of the 2nd World War who live in Curitiba-PR.

Il Tredicesimo Commensal... Guido Brignone attempts, rather curiously, the traditionally English whodunit (the overall plot, deduced from the news reports of the period, further highlights this aspect: the guests that have been invited to the lunch at which the solution is to be revealed are all possible suspects). But, above all, the mystery formula as a guarantee to melodramatic functioning, otherwise close to being worn-out, seems to have been one of the marks of the Torino company (e.g. Il quadro di Osvaldo Mars). The result, at least in this final reel, is truely interesting. Flash-backs, subjective takes, alternate editing, all seems to be used without dispersion and beyond that practice of contemplative lingering on the framing that characterizes much of the Italian cinema up to 1920.
