"Over the Walls" is about the Prati neighborhood, the last of the Roman neighborhoods, the only over the walls.
The film is an immersive journey into this historical area of Rome, generically called "Prati," which includes three distinct areas with different building characteristics and built in different eras: "Prati di Castello," born in the post-Unitarian 19th century expansion; "Prati delle Vittorie," built mainly in the period between the two world wars and in the following decades; and a part of the "Trionfale" neighborhood.
The present, the past and the future told by those who live, work and deeply know this central area of the city.
