  • Meeting

For this first session, we’re heading to Rome, in the heart of Italy and the world of Nanni Moretti’s films.

But between his relationship in crisis, his French producer on the verge of bankruptcy, and his daughter turning her back on him, everything seems to be working against him! Always walking a tightrope, Giovanni will have to rethink his approach if he wants to lead his little world toward a bright future.
