- Creator of some of the greatest masterpieces of Italian cinema such as "La grande Guerra", "I compagni", "I soliti ignoti", "L'armata brancaleone" and "Amici miei", in this documentary director Monicelli's life interweaves with that of his characters and performers to create a portrait of a developing Italy, a peninsula occupied by every population, while still being the owner of its own culture, that can laugh at everything, including itself.
