Time of No One

In this story centered around historical events, an American priest arrives in Rome in 1943 and finds the city in turmoil. The prime minister has been exiled, the king has fled the country and Rome's native son, Pope Pius XII, is trying to stay out of the fray of World War II as German soldiers pour into the city, threatening the pontiff and rounding up Jews. Without leadership, people in Rome are left on their own. Romans called this period "Il tempo dal nessuno," or "The time of no one." How people will respond determines history, and their personal legacies.
