A father and a daughter. Cinema and life. Childhood that seems perfect and then growing up doing everything wrong. Falling and getting back up, starting again, growing old, becoming fragile, letting go but never losing oneself. The time it takes to save oneself.
‘This film is a very personal account of moments with my father that emerged from memories and remained vivid and intact in my mind. A personal story that I believe, however, finds the right distance in the fact that between father and daughter there is always cinema as a passion, a choice of life, a way of being in the world,’ says Francesca Comencini. ’Around the years of massacres, social revolutions, the advent of drugs, which turned the life of an entire generation upside down.’
