Cecilia Mangini
1961 - Italie - Couleur - 10'
An apparently unconcerned eulogy to the existential anarchy of Roman sub-proletarians, to their desperate vitality, to their communities of play... In fact the film is a gripping social portrait and a precise denunciation, sketched out with no sociological heaviness because the point of view is full of devotion and a love that never becomes paternalistic. Thanks to a form relying on unfettered continuous-shot scenes, the goal is fully reached and the film moves us as much as it makes us indignant.
