Graphic artist, passionate collector and refined aesthete, Ricci had the courage to give new life to the art of printing. He created and published the most elegant art publications – such as FMR – in the world since the Sixties. Through the bamboo corridors of his maze and the rooms containing his art collection, it is Ricci himself who tells his own story.

Making their contribution to the story are, among others, Bernardo Bertolucci, Feltrinelli, publishers Hoepli
and Taschen, as well as Guy Cogeval, director of the Musée d’Orsay, all tell anecdotes portraying the multifaceted profile of an Italian genius, but also of a man of great humanity and brilliance. From Parma to Paris, from New York to the Buenos Aires of Borges, this documentary covers the life and dreams of one of the most influential maîtres à penser of the second half of the 20th Century.
