A documentary by Reinhild Dettmer-Finke and Verena Knümann

"A game of Bocce and a ration of milk for the children", that was the Northern Italian manufacturers' secret recipe for keeping the workers in a good mood. Through appealing images, the film tells the story of Italy’s traditional Bocce game whose beginnings took place in early industrial Piedmont. A film from the series "Spiele der Welt" (Games of the World).
