Like Life - Private Stories of Italian Film Critics

For at least three generations of viewers, cinema has been like life: a motive for work, relationships, conflict, politics, and pleasure. The documentary, based on original interviews with critics active between the 1950s and the present day, evokes the places, rituals, professional routines, gender relations, and polemical and social dimensions of Italian film criticism. Not only a profession, but above all a discovery of the world through films, yesterday as today.
