Love Against War - the Martyr Teresio Olivelli
A young hero showing mercy and resistance in the face of oppression.

This documentary tells the story of a young man whose courage and faith transcended oppression. Founder of the clandestine newspaper Il Ribelle, Blessed Teresio Olivelli risked everything to challenge Nazi and Fascist ideology, ultimately enduring imprisonment at Fossoli and deportation to a German concentration camp. Amid unimaginable brutality, he devoted himself to helping fellow prisoners, which culminated in an act of ultimate mercy—giving his life to save another.
