The Isole Tremiti, off the Gargano Peninsula in the Adriatic Sea. From left to right the islands are: San Domino; the small, uninhabited island of Cretaccio; San Nicola where most of the population resides, with fortified monastery; and Capraia, also uninhabited. In 1938 Mussolini secretly turned San Domino into an internment camp for homosexual men, despite there being no sexuality laws. Contrary to his intentions it allowed the inmates to be openly gay for the first time in their lives: when the camp was closed on the outbreak of WWII many were reluctant to return to the repression on the staunchly-catholic mainland.

Men play Morra in the foreground; fish vendor behind with others drinking and chatting. Morra is a traditional game very popular in Italy, particularly in the regions bordering the Mediterranean.

Simultaneously the two players stretch their arms showing their fist or spreading a number of fingers of their choice, while shouting (as if to intimidate the opponent) a number from two to ten (the "punch" is equivalent to one and ten is also called proper "morra") generally in the local language , sometimes crippled with very colourful expressions that vary from region to region.
