Sinekatalog’s take

Renato Castellani follows young people in a poor Roman district in 1943 and 1944, scraping by on small jobs while a boy tries to avoid the draft. Warm, funny and lightly touched by hardship, it is a lively cousin of neorealism.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
