Rome fell once. This is the sequel nobody asked for but everyone needs.
"From my house in da house - A history of Rome" is a documentary that with a light tone and a fast pace tells the last thirty years of the center of Rome. From the splendor of the early 90s to the darkness of today, without ever falling into rhetoric. The leitmotif of the film is irony. Sometimes bitter, in the story of the many well-known characters that are meeting places, situations and unrepeatable encounters. All together they combine to form a mosaic that gives the current image of Rome. Wounded, stunned, but still able to recover and return to its eternal splendor.
