Dans un petit village, entre Rome et Naples, les Alliés sont sur le point de faire leur entrée triomphale. Mario Venicio, maire nommé par les fascistes, pense à la libération et juge plus prudent de confier sa difficile place à son ami d'enfance Attilio Capellaro, antifasciste notoire dont le fils est fiancé à sa fille Aurora. D'abord réticent, Attilio finit par se laisser convaincre. Malgré tout, il semble que les Alliés soient encore bien loin et Crippa, le représentant du Fascio, envoie en avant le fils de Cappellaro (qui est dans la vraie vie le fils de l'acteur français) et fait savoir qu'il a convoqué une bande de chemises noires pour rétablir l'ordre. Cappellaro fait en sorte que son fils reste dans le village en le cachant dans la cave, mais pendant la nuit Crippa est assassiné.
