Where Is Freedom? (Italian: '''Dov'è la libertà?''') is a 1954 Italian comedy-drama film directed by Roberto Rossellini.[1] The film had a troubled production because, after shooting some scenes, Rossellini lost interest in the film and abandoned the set. The work was completed after about a year, mainly from Mario Monicelli, with some scenes also shot by Lucio Fulci and Federico Fellini. Despite that, Rossellini is the sole credited director of the film.[2]
