The Truce

John Turturro stars as an Auschwitz survivor returning to Italy after the war in director Franceso Rosi's new adaptation of Primo Levi's autobiographical "La Tregua" ("The Truce"). The film, an official selection appearing in competition at the 1997 Cannes Film Festival, traces Levi's experiences while traveling back to Turin and, along the way, coping with the realities of trying to reclaim his own shattered dignity.
