The short film shows a child getting out of a car holding two packages, probably gifts, which he places on a table placed in a square or along a street. On the table are demijohns, bottles of wine and boxes of Cirio tomatoes, part of a collection of food and basic necessities destined for the soldiers of the Legnano Division, as indicated by a sign reading ‘For the infantrymen of the Legnano Division’. The atmosphere reflects the spirit of solidarity and reconstruction in post-war Italy, typical of the 1950s, with the involvement of local communities in supporting the armed forces.
