La famiglia degli Obizi, venuta di stranio paese, s'illustrò nelle armi, v'ebbe grande potenza e non lasciò nome esecrato
(Antonio Berti, 1846)
The film describes the great battles of Gian Battista Zelotti's frescos. The camera runs across the frescos in a restless whirling of sudden shots of the backgrounds of battles, while smoky fogs wrap up soldiers and landscape mingling with clouds and earth vapours. This is a tale that looks like a dream, and here is dreamt again from different perspectives.
