Le SoIdatesse (The Camp FoIIowers) is a heartbreakingly moving wartime drama starring the Iuminous Anna Karina (Pierrot Ie Fou, AIphavilIe) and directed by the great VaIerio ZurIini (The Desert of the Tartars, Family Portrait). Lieutenant Martino (Tomas MiIian) can no longer stand the death and disease surrounding him in Athens, and puts in a request to be relocated. So along with Sergeant CastagnoIi (Mario Adorf) he is tasked with delivering twelve prostitutes to various military outposts across the Axis territory. lt is an unpleasant task, made even more so by the fascistic Major AIessi (Aca Gavric), who they pick up aIong the way. Karina pIays EIenitza, a soft spoken prostitute who develops a sympathetic reIationship with Martino. Alessi becomes increasinglyunhinged during the journey, becoming a violent and maniacal supporter of the BIackshirts, whose brutal tactics tear the group apart.
