A story about family and fate - and how so much of our lives hinges on chance. A country torn apart by war. Two siblings divided by fate. Italy, 1938. Mussolini is in power and war is not far away . . . Clara and Pippo are just children: quiet, thoughtful Clara is the older sister, Pippo the younger brother is forever chatting. The family has only recently arrived in the city carrying their few possessions. When Mamma goes missing early one morning, both Clara and Pippo go in search of her. Clara turns right; Pippo, left. As a result of the choices they make that morning, their lives will be changed forever. Diana Rosie' s Pippo and Clara tells the story of a family and a country divided. But will Clara and Pippo - and their mother - find each other again?
