The film is divided into three parts: childhood, youth, and old age. When I was a child, I saw Rome from my teacher, in class, in cinemas, theaters, and cafes. A stone, an actor playing Caesar, school slides, the voice of the pope, historical films in cinemas, news films... Then came the youth, "I" came to Rome in war. People eat strange things, but they still have to eat, laugh, and sing... messy and noisy. And Rome is like "I" complaining to the hostess of the house, bloated and sick, but loves all his children and the guests who live in his house. In modern times, the plot is that I direct the shooting of a documentary about Rome. In the last paragraph, "I" is no longer obvious.
The section of subway repair probably means that modernization has destroyed ancient Rome... countless excellent things have disappeared.
There is also a short section that cannot be classified, that is, the Pope attends a trendy religious fashion show. I think I'm talking about the nobles with ancient history, religion still exists, but they all changed their faces and tried to adapt to modernization. But watching the performance in the movie, the director obviously thinks that this kind of modernization is an exaggerated funny.
At the end of the movie, young people rode in groups on motorcycles across bridges and proceeded along the road. It feels like saying that the world will eventually belong to these young people, who keep moving forward.
It is really imaginative to make a documentary like this, but it is also because he is the most famous director, and he filmed Rome in his eyes full of emotion. Use imagination to present a noisy, hot and humid, messy but friendly and lovely city.
