Rosi combined poetic documentary with observational and factual. His way of telling stories is revolutionary if you think of how facts are reported in our modern world. We got so used to hear what appear to be the truth from journalists, filmmakers and any other kind of people reporting what's happening in the world that we forgot the power of the everyday life. Thanks Gianfranco to remind us that with pure Cinema.

Ho iniziato a commuovermi sin dalle prime scene. Un lavoro immenso che deve essere visto nelle scuole.
