Following the significant impact of Roberto Rossellini's Rome Open City, Paisan explores different stories across the country during the latter stages of World War II amid Italy's liberation. The film, notable for its documentary-like aesthetic and composed of six different segments, delves into the interactions between the liberating forces and the Italian populace, showcasing the struggles of diverse cultures in communicating and people's endeavors to carry on with their daily lives under extreme conditions.
Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
