This is the story of a place that served for seven years as the filming location for the television series My Brilliant Friend, based on Elena Ferrante's acclaimed novels. Told through the perspective of Alba Rohrwacher, the protagonist of the series final season, and through nature, which adapted and thrived in this place over time, the story captures the place's ephemeral transformation. Originally a true non-place, it came to life as The Neighborhood ('Il Rione'), the largest open-air film set in Europe. Yet, after filming ended, The Neighborhood was demolished, returning the place to the non-place it once was, except in the memory of those who lived and breathed it.
