Where it was filmed 'Breaking up in Rome'

“Lasciarsi un giorno a Roma. Lasciarsi e poi dimenticarsi…” is a line from a song by Niccolò Fabi (1998) which inspired the film directed by and starring Edoardo Leo. A film that focusses on couples and emotions, presenting Rome as a great theatre where these stories are set: although, in this case, the focus is on the end of a love story and not a beginning despite the evocative beauty of the city. The millennial charm of Rome plays a role in the story with its distinctive outline, emphasizing the joy and pain, laughter and tears of the characters. The perspective is often unusual, such as that from a boat trip on the Tiber river whose eternal flow, with barges, cycle paths along the river, bridges (a scene on ponte Sisto marks the opening and end of the film) is ever present, almost symbolizing the passing of time, apparently the same as it ever was, despite the inevitability of change.

Splitting up after 10 years means not only leaving the other person but also a world of friendships, habits, relationships and certainties. A universe that one risks losing. The friendship between Tommaso and Umberto (Stefano Fresi), who is living through a similar experience, is strong and when Tommaso inevitably needs to share the problems that lie behind a wall of apparent normality, he confides in his friend – at night with a deserted and beautiful piazza Navona in the background.
