		After WWI, also due to consequent general economical crisis, Italian cinema produced less interesting works despite the introduction of sound, and it was only at the end of the 1920s that some innovative films were directed by Alessandro Blasetti, Mario Camerini and his cousin Augusto Genina.
		Italian cinema had little prices to pay to dictatorship, and perhaps only when approaching the war, when (like in every fighting country) many works were produced for propaganda purposes.

		In Amelio's cinema by extension one could likewise think of a father and son relationship between the nation and its citizens, of which Gino and Spiro's relationship could be a metaphor.
		Spiro conviction that Albania is Italy, and that he therefore will be able to reach Sicily by train, paradoxically becomes a strengthening force for Spiro himself on one hand (who in the film is portrayed as an unusually strong man despite his old age), and a grotesque lesson for Gino on the other.
		In Amelio's film (and cinema if considering that in Ladro di bambini the institutions called to protect minors fail to carry out their moral and statuary obligation) Italy's worsening conditions, included the widespread unemployment, does not justify easy solutions nor Gino's contempt for hard work, but rather warningly condemns it.
