Roma

Overview

Roma is a poetic documentary about Rome, created during a trip to Italy in November 1987. Sequences showing the Pantheon, rustling leaves, a tiger-striped cat on a car, the pigeons at Santa Maria Maggiore, and the Tiber against the light are presented with precise, rhythmic displacements. Painterly shadows and graphic nuances are played out on the screen. (Filmform)
