Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The resulting collaboration produced a series of films that are works of both sociopolitical concern and metaphysical melodrama. Stromboli, Europe '51, and Journey to Italy are intensely personal portraits that reveal the director at his most emotional and the glamorous actor at her most anguished, and that capture them and the world around them in transition.
Issued as part of 3-film set with Stromboli and Journey to Italy : 3 films by Roberto Rossellini starring Ingrid Bergman.
Originally produced as a motion picture in 1952.
