- Synopsis:
From acclaimed Palme d'Or winning director Nanni Moretti comes The Caiman, at once an irresistible comedy and a full frontal attack on former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlisconi. Bankrupt in his professional and personal life, Z-grade movie producer Bruno is finding it hard to raise the finance for his latest project. Entangled in debt, struggling with a capsizing marriage and wayward kids, Bruno is going under. By chance, he meets a young director who gives him her script, The Caiman. At first Bruno takes it for a half-hearted thriller; a more careful - if belated - reading reveals a film about Berlisconi. As his professional and personal life disintegrate around him, Bruno rediscovers his dignity and passion as he fights to finish the film. - Actors:
