The story

During the fascist occupation, when the use of the Slovenian language was forbidden, a Slovenian married couple decided to teach their son only the Italian language. The son grew up as an Italian citizen in Italy. When getting old, however, the mother became ill, slipped into regression and forgot everything but the most deeply rooted memories. She also forgot the Italian language for that reason.
