Synopsis

Nietzsche roams Turin, admiring the architecture, going to the opera and enjoying the language and the people. He settles into his small room in a lodging house, writes his books, diaries and letters and plays piano. The film that is practically without dialogue –a voiceover reads from Nietzsche’s travel writings– is filled with well-chosen fragments of classical music from the time and beautiful interior scenes. No one knows exactly why the German writer was eventually prey to insanity, but Bressane shows this last, tragic episode in a subtle and convincing way.
