A cuore aperto
With Massimo Wertmüller
By Gianni Clementi
Director's notes
A heart open ”is a declaration of war on Rome and its language made by one of its citizens, by one of his sons, who rejects this sort of genetic mutation for which his city seems inexorably destined. Rome, a multi-ethnic city always poised between cynicism and generosity, between disenchantment and emotion, but not only. Massimo Wertmüller embarks on a journey starting from the roots of a civilization, with some learned dissertations, but also some inevitable falls, to arrive at reflecting on the great themes of life itself. It is an intimate, sometimes cheeky journey in search of one’s origins accompanied by the music of Maestro Pino Cangialosi. The nostalgia for a Rome that is no longer. The tough pleasure of belonging to this city, its exaggerations, its smells, its suburbs, its beauty. Recognize oneself in the love for Rome that lives in Pasolini’s words. A journey full of fun, but also of reflection.
