Nanni Moretti recounts in his diary three slice-of-life stories marked by a dry, ironic gaze: in the first, he rides his Vespa through a deserted, sun-drenched summertime Rome; in the second, he visits a reclusive friend on an island, who ropes him into an impromptu journey between islets in search of quiet; and in the last, he finds himself grappling with an unknown illness.

Reflections of a man of contemporary Italy.
Three shorts presented as if they were excerpts from the director’s personal diary, continuously breaching the fourth wall. In the first segment, he travels around Rome on his scooter while disrupting the lives of those he encounters on his path. The subsequent segment sees him exploring the Aeolian Islands, depicting each location as if they were separate planets. In the last segment, he travels from one clinic to the other, receiving an array of contrasting diagnoses at every turn. Although the dialogue tends to feel a little stilted, the lighthearted tone and rough delivery make the film charming and enjoyable throughout.
