Storyline : An army cadet accompanies an irascible, blind captain on a week-long
trip from Turin to Naples. The captain, Fausto, who wants no pity,
brooks no disagreement, and charges into every situation, nicknames the
youth Ciccio ("Babyfat"), and spends the next few days ordering him
about and generally behaving badly in public. In Rome, Fausto summons a
priest to ask for his blessing; in Naples, where Fausto joins a blind
lieutenant for drinking and revelry, the two soldiers talk quietly and
seriously about "going through with it." Also in Naples is Sara, in love
with Fausto, but treated cruelly by him. {full_page}
