After a long researching in America?s military archives, Istituto Luce have found an extraordinary and very rare filmed colour documentation, whose many shots were made by people not belonging to any of the propaganda services. The film provides the simple, unbiased testimony of a group of soldiers. Codename Husky provides an original and very modern reading of a dramatic page in Italy?s recent history, a page that is still painfully topical and often caught up in bitter controversy.
