Giuseppe De Santis
This is a voyage in De Santis filmmaking through the eyes of Carlo Lizzani, film historian, friend and collaborator of Giuseppe De Santis. The story takes place amidst a film, places and persons, in a composite manner, characterized by an intimate, private scope.
The locations filmed tell of De Santis at various stages in his artistic, private and political life, from literature to films, to political and ideological battles. Memories of several critics, artists and friends abound with tales of the great filmmaker’s sets. Throughout his life "Peppe" will bear the reputation of a troublesome director due to his ideological and artistic severity: collaborators, long-time friends, young (and not-so-young) cinema students make it possible to describe even those aspects of his filmmaking that till now have remained unknown.
