Shot on location in Rome with a non-professional cast and an incredible attention to detail, this poignant study of an ageing civil servant pushed to the margins of the society he's always faithfully served comes close to cinematic perfection. A deeply touching and humane story that shows an amazing eye for the sights of everyday life, the film features an outstanding central performance that radiates quiet dignity from Carlo Battisti.
