Summary of Caro Diario
Nanni Moretti's CARO DIARIO (DEAR DIARY) consists of three charming autobiographical vignettes that intertwine to make this insightful, witty, and wistful film. In the first, "On My Vespa," Moretti zooms around Rome on his moped exploring the landscape, visiting friends and going to the cinema. "Islands" takes Moretti and his friend Gerardo to the island of Salina, where loads of children run free and Gerardo discovers the joys of TV. "Doctors" depicts the frustrations caused by science, medicine and ineffectual doctors. Although each story creates a visual and verbal atmosphere of despair, an undercurrent of humor exists, and through the laughter, hope emerges.
