La Grande Bellezza

It's summer. Rome shines in all its splendour: beautiful and seductive. Just like Jep Gambardella's life - lavish parties, gourmet restaurants and beautiful women. But behind the seducer lies a disillusioned man who is bored by the superficiality of opulent society. He often thinks about his literary work, which brought him great success in his youth for his only novel to date. He also reminisces about his first great love. He covers up the emptiness that remains with cynicism and gin and tonic. On his 65th birthday, he realises one thing: everything is fleeting. Even in the eternal city.
