Life as Carlo – Final Season, the trailer
Vita da Carlo – Final season, previews on the plot
The series resumes after the gaffe that occurred in the third season, during the Sanremo Festival.
Following the media pillory, Carlo, yet another illustrious victim of cancel culture, preferred to retire outside Italy, to Nice, and has no intention of returning. A wise choice that allowed him to reorganize his ideas and finally dedicate some time to himself. But it is precisely when Carlo has become accustomed to this self-imposed exile that someone remembers him. The general director of the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia contacted him to offer him the director’s chair. Carlo accepts, he wants to reinvent himself and write a last act worthy of his great story.
His return to Italy goes unnoticed. Carlo rediscovers the pleasure of walking through the streets of Rome without being stopped at every step for selfies and autographs. And he doesn’t mind it, on the contrary. All he is interested in is shaping the six young directors of the Centro Sperimentale, who represent the future of Italian cinema. However, it will be anything but a simple undertaking. The generation gap is making itself felt. The twenty-year-old students, who grew up in a society steeped in political correctness, and Carlo seem to speak two different languages. But Carlo will not give up and will gradually become aware that his real objective must not be to rehabilitate himself in the eyes of public opinion but to provide concrete help to new cinema talents, remaining behind the scenes. Carlo wants to change the minds of the six students, demonstrate that he has a lot to teach and he will do so by helping them to make their first work, a collective and experimental film that will talk about the theme of loneliness. But, between spiteful colleagues and compromises with the producers, the road to achieve this will be long and full of problems… The usual family problems will frame Carlo’s new challenge. Chicco and Maddalena, sucked into parental duties and with a wedding to organize; Annamaria and Sandra struggling with their respective love troubles; Giovanni and Eva returning from New Zealand with a big surprise. And obviously, unfortunately – or fortunately – everyone always relies on one person to solve their problems: Carlo.
