Caro Diario

Caro diario by Nanni Moretti is a film that explores the daily life, personal reflections and experiences of the director, presented through a diaristic and fragmented format. The film is divided into three sections: in the first, Moretti explores Rome on the move, offering a personal and ironic look at the city, its contradictions and its daily life. In an intimate and reflective tone, the director also tackles topics such as health, politics and culture, interweaving private observations with moments of social satire.
The second part of the film is more intense and personal, focusing on the director’s struggle with an illness that leads him to reflect on the fragility of life and existential difficulties, such as medicine and the search for solutions to his physical problems. Here Moretti immerses himself in the experience of hospitalization, creating a contrast between the comedy of situations and the seriousness of reflections.
Finally, in the third part, the director focuses on a journey to Sicily, where he confronts himself with his own past and identity, exploring his connection with the territory and the people around him. The film plays with self-irony, mixing elements of comedy and drama in a unique way, and reflects on the sense of belonging and the passage of time.
Caro diario is an intimate and personal reflection, but also a critique of contemporary society, a story of research and introspection that manages to touch universal themes with a distinctive sensitivity. With his unmistakable style, Nanni Moretti tells life in a simple but profound way, showing the beauty and contradictions of human existence.
