The script of the film was jointly completed by the director and Fellini. There are six short stories in it, which show different aspects of Italy during World War II.

He chased him to a slum, saw the truth there, and walked back barefoot after being moved. The third story: When an American soldier stationed in Rome first arrived in Italy, he received water from a beautiful girl; later, when he was drunk, he bumped into a street prostitute and told her drunkenly about his feelings for the past. The girl's feelings, unaware that the person is the one in front of her. Fourth Story: An American Nurse and an Italian Resistance Cross the German Army Together. Story 5: Three clergymen of different religions meet a group of monks in a temple, different beliefs clash, but eventually everyone realizes that they belong to the same God.
