Legendary filmmaker, Roberto Rossellini was considered to be "the father of the French New Wave" by Francois Truffaut in his 1963 essay, "Roberto Rossellini Prefers Real Life"

His best known film is probably “Open City” (1945). "Open City" is the story of anti-Nazi resistance set in the last days of the war in Europe. However, I think "The Flowers of St. Francis" which is about St. Francis of Assisi, may be his best film.
