Brocani’s testimony is the background of the current dialogue concerning the present Italian situation, the celebration of the 150th anniversary of this country and also of contemporary cinema. What it means to live in Italy nowadays, not only as artists but also as active citizens; the meaning of a backwarded country like Italy, which chases other international powers.
