Open Roads veteran Gianni Amelio (Lord of the Ants, Open Roads 2023) returns with this powerful parable about courage and compassion under extreme pressure. Alessandro Borghi is mesmerizing as Giulio, a doctor at a military hospital during WWI who does what he can to help wounded soldiers (and soldiers who have wounded themselves in an effort to be discharged). His foil is none other than fellow doctor Stefano (Gabriel Montesi), who is as harsh and severe with the soldiers as Giulio is accommodating and compassionate. An elegantly executed work of historical fiction, Battleground is a sober and profound meditation on the toll of war. Premiered at the 2024 Venice Film Festival.
