Having travelled to most of the regions in the series many times, having friends in diffeent areas and having lived with italians, to witness such a wholesome, kind and endearing testimony to the beauty and complexity of Italy is quite magical.
With Stanley capturing the essence of the finer charachteristics of the italian psyche with his own background giving exceptional credibility and the obvious sincerity of his joy and identity in engaging with the people and experiences, the story told is such a love story that captures the viewer in a quite special documentary style production. This is a must watch for anyone. The cinematography, the cutting and audio are exceptional and really strike a note of closeness and realness. Kudos to Stanley for involving his family and bringing an intimate and private aspect to the storyline that really gives the entire narrative an excpetional angle of authenticity. Personally I truly hope there will be further series.
