Visually suggestive comic drama about finding the sense of our own existence and reconciliation of eternally flowing time. A story about aging writer and journalist Jep living in “sparkling” high society of Rome is a critic of contemporary socety living in superficiality, hypocrisy and blindness. Scene compositions, vertiginous angles and dream changes of film shot sizes are bringing us to sunny seductive Rome with all majestic pieces of art history where all the characters look bizzare or exotic.
