What happens

La Wally is a 1932 Italian musical drama film directed by Guido Brignone and starring Germana Paolieri, Isa Pola and Carlo Ninchi. It is an adaptation of the 1892 opera La Wally by Alfredo Catalani, which in turn is based on the novel The Vulture Maiden by Wilhelmine von Hillern. It was shot at the Cines Studios in Rome. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Gastone Medin and Ivo Perilli. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
