Amarcord
The Fantastic World of Fellini!
Directed by Federico Fellini
Produced by Productions et Éditions Cinématographiques Françaises, F.C. Produzioni
A dreamlike, semi-autobiographical portrait of adolescence in 1930s fascist Italy, blending comic observation with surreal fantasy and nostalgic melancholy.
In an Italian seaside town, young Titta gets into trouble with his friends and watches various local eccentrics as they engage in often absurd behavior. Frequently clashing with his stern father and defended by his doting mother, Titta witnesses the actions of a wide range of characters, from his extended family to Fascist loyalists to sensual women, with certain moments shifting into fantastical scenarios.
