The Truce (Italian: La Tregua) is a 1997 film directed by Francesco Rosi, who co-wrote the screenplay with Stefano Rulli and Sandro Petraglia, and its story treatment with Tonino Guerra based on Primo Levi's memoir, The Truce. The film deals with Primo Levi's experiences returning to Italy in 1945 after the Red Army liberated the concentration camp at Auschwitz during the Second World War. This was Rosi's final film before his death in 2015.
