Unashamedly introspective and unexpectedly poignant, Nanni Moretti's three-part comedy uses a cinematic diary format to explore his beloved hometown — Rome — and the recesses of his own personality. Playing himself, Moretti joyrides around Rome on his Vespa, opining about architecture, cinema, and social change; battles writer's block by taking a trip with a scholar pal (Renato Carpentieri); and seeks a cure for a skin rash that is misdiagnosed by a staggering number of physicians.

Nanni Moretti's CARO DIARIO (DEAR DIARY) consists of three charming autobiographical vignettes that intertwine to make this insightful, witty, and wistful film. In the first, "On My Vespa," Moretti zooms around Rome on his moped exploring the landscape, visiting friends and going to the cinema. "Islands" takes Moretti and his friend Gerardo to the island of Salina, where loads of children run free and Gerardo discovers the joys of TV. "Doctors" depicts the frustrations caused by science, medicine and ineffectual doctors. Although each story creates a visual and verbal atmosphere of despair, an undercurrent of humor exists, and through the laughter, hope emerges.
