Set in modern day Rome, Bits and Pieces has been compared to Short Cuts, as it has no central characters and multiple storylines. It starts with a robbery at a restaurant. Moving to a "fence" and a journalist. Then a dental salesman whose wife is murdered by their son. A social worker who's having an affair. A man returning to Rome after living in England for many years. And so on...
Il cielo è sempre più blu
Vignettes of Roman life feature a jogger, robbers, newlyweds, an opportunistic mechanic and a sadistic meter-maid.
