Sacro GRA
First screened in February 2020
Director: Gianfranco Rosi. Documentary about slices of life in and around Rome's famous Ring Road. Screenplay: Gianfranco Rosi and .

Twitter Capsule: Purview a bit looser than I guessed, but the photography is exquisite. Quite a cross-section of lives lived around Rome.

VOR:   Less urgent takeaways and address than in Rosi's Fire at Sea, but bringing comparable craft to "smaller" stories is itself a feat.
