Italy: the brilliant friend of the screen
Italy's screen identity is fiercely local. «My Brilliant Friend» was largely shot on a vast purpose-built Rione set near Caserta, but the series spills into real Naples and onto Ischia, the volcanic island reached by ferry that stars in the holiday episode. Walk the actual Rione Luzzatti that inspired Ferrante's neighbourhood, then let «Suburra» and «The Young Pope» pull you toward Rome. These are cities you read, watch and wander all at once.
«My Brilliant Friend», «Suburra», «The Young Pope»: Italy tells its cities through series. Naples, Rome and Lazio are its living sets.
«My Brilliant Friend», adapted from Elena Ferrante, revived curiosity about Naples's working-class neighbourhoods.
