DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Federico Fellini Italy

His films like 'La Dolce Vita' (1960) and '8½' (1963) capture the decadence, glamour, and existential angst of 1960s Rome with unparalleled visual poetry.

 Pier Paolo Pasolini Italy

His gritty, sociologically acute films such as 'Accattone' (1961) and 'Mamma Roma' (1962) expose the marginalized underbelly of Rome's suburban working-class during this era.

 Michelangelo Antonioni Italy

Though not exclusively Rome-based, his films like 'L'Avventura' (1960) and 'L'Eclisse' (1962) reflect the alienation and modernization transforming Italian society in the 1960s.
