My Human Heart, title taken from the singer’s autobiographic novel, is a journey through the places and emotions of Nada, who generously and with sincere verve goes back over her experience as a woman and artist: raised in the countryside of Tuscany between the 1950s and 1960s and becoming a singer through the powerful will of her mother, Nada at fifteen suddenly became the icon for an entire generation. Today, with the freedom of an artist experiencing a new lease on life, she tells us about her laceration from that rural world, reckoning both with life and the contradictions of a deeply loved profession.
