Abstract

The author analyses how Federico Fellini represents in «La dolce vita» the social, cultural, sexual and politic characteristics of a generation who has grown up in a strict latin and catholic context. Ethic, aesthetic and cinematographic keys of this film are analysed by the author using five dimensions. These keys are called by him the «twelve heresies» of «La dolce vita».
