Aprile
Directed by Nanni Moretti
Produced by Sacher Film, Bac Films
A self-reflexive, deadpan comedy that weaves together Moretti's personal anxieties about impending fatherhood with his political preoccupations, using the form itself as part of the joke.
Nanni Moretti once again muses on the ebb and flow of life in April 1996, as he is about to become a father for the first time and finds himself unable to focus on his documentary about the upcoming general elections, where the left is heading into a rematch against Berlusconi.
