“This is not a u0026quot;rareu0026quot; film, but for a movie that has been out for over a year, it still has fewer than ten reviews on IMDb. This is the tenth review.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI wonu0026#39;t spoil the film, but this is not really worth watching as a standalone film. If you donu0026#39;t like Dalidau0026#39;s music, this film is not for you. Most of the film is music. Not u0026quot;about musicu0026quot; but just music. Sveva Alviti standing in front of a microphone and singing. Sometimes on stage, sometimes in a studio, sometimes on TV, on the radio, and sometimes in montages where other things happen.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf you enjoy her music and want to listen to whole songs, this movie is for you. If you donu0026#39;t want to listen to whole songs and want to see a movie, maybe skip this one. Itu0026#39;s closer to u0026quot;Pink Floyd The Wallu0026quot; (the movie) than to a biopic.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eCasting, editing, sound, cinematography, etc. where all excellent, but this film is heavy on the music and light on the story.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eA very generous 6/10.”
