To be born and to grow up on an island like Sardinia, it almost feels like to live inside of a Diorama: a small, picturesque surrounding that can only give you an impression of reality. Seen through the eyes of a person who left and told by the voices of the young people that are still there, Diorama is an analysis on belonging to a place that feels abandoned and hostile towards the people that inhabit an island that has so much to offer, but at the same time nothing to give.

To mark the recent thirtieth anniversary of Sergio Leone’s death, this documentary sets out to pay tribute to one of the great legends of world cinema. The singular artistic vision of Sergio Leone has transcended national borders, creating the Spaghetti Western genre and transforming the international cinematic panorama forever with his innovative stylistic and narrative solutions, which have now become part of the language of the movies. The film, which is enriched with precious archive footage from the Cineteca di Bologna, including rare audio recordings and film clips shot behind the scenes, sees for the first time the direct participation of the Leone family and has interviews both with Leone’s longtime collaborators and with icons of Hollywood who have been profoundly influenced by his work.
