The TVI Take

Roberto Rossellini's 1948 final installment of his War Trilogy, a young Berlin boy navigating the postwar rubble whose moral collapse the film tracks with documentary-grade specificity. The structural commitment to filming on actual bombed Berlin streets (no recreations, no sets) is the canonical postwar-cinema visual register.
