This is probably one of the best documentary I have ever seen. The idea of doing "selfie videos" documenting the millieu and people in Napoli is unique and works fantastic. I love the guys in the movie. You should try it: whatch Selfie and you will feel that you are a friend of these two very kind and warm-hearted boys. I wish this movie would be nominated for an Oscar, because this is a real one you will never ever see again.
Plot summary
Naples, Trajan's district. Initially it was intended for the inhabitants of the shantytowns on the seafront of Naples, who were homeless after the war. But it soon became a kind of ghetto. Alessandro and Pietro are two teenagers who film with an iPhone to tell their difficult neighborhood, their daily life, the friendship that binds them.

A must see!!!
Hope.
I had no idea what kind of documentary it was before I watched Selfie. You will watch the story of two friends and what is going on around them. I can say that there is pure sincerity and sometimes sadness from the very beginning to the end.
It looks like neighborhoods where I was born and grew up. I understand the difficulties, livelihoods and life struggles of people. In this world, unfortunately, the pipe of the strong always sounds more and the weak ones are constantly crushed. Even a search for justice. But hope should be every moment and we should never be pessimistic. Whatever happens, justice is taking place one day.
As a result, I can say that I love it and recommend it to those who have not yet watched. I love the city of Naples. It seems very natural to me. We must always have hope.
Small documentary masterpiece!
Premise: I decided to view this work only and exclusively for third parties, therefore, no personal initiative of what led me to view it.
Before looking at the work, I was particularly interested in the synopsis of it. I didn't expect all of this.
Scenes of everyday life, reality and pure reality that surround a dramatic story, for which the film is based.
Agostino Ferrente was able to give credit to these two guys from the suburbs, able to create the right pasta for what is a purely documentary work.
I just want to quote a dialogue in a somewhat "plot twist" sequence,
"... we must also tell the bad things"
Truth, determination and fidelity, here is represented a work of much respect.

Thank you.
