Bella Ciao is a song of revolt that has become an ode to resistance all over the world. By taking this song as the title of his story, which blends fiction and family saga, current and historical reality, tragedy and comedy, Baru brings us a working-class story of Italian immigration. Bella Ciao, for him, is an attempt to answer the burning question of our time: what price must a foreigner pay to stop sticking out and blend in. The immigrants in this case are Italian, but the question is a universal one.
