Porca vacca

In this lesser-known war-comedy, Pasquale Festa Campanile tells a story that may have been overlooked by critics, but not for lack of trying to make a point about art and war. A struggling stage artist, Primo Baffo, finds himself at the front lines instead of his canvas, where he befriends two farmers and a couple of scammers who join him in his attempts to deceive their superiors. With a cast that includes Renato Pozzetto and Laura Antonelli, this 1982 Italian film is a testament to the resilience of friendship amidst chaos.
