Synopsis:
1983, northern Italy: the about-to-come-of-age son of an intellectual couple, who annually take a student intern for the summer, falls in love with the young man of the moment, and discovers his sexuality at the same time.
Review:
Successfully conjuring the atmosphere of those memorable summers of one's youth, and steeped in the music of its time, this is a 'forbidden love' tale mercifully free of broken hearts and histrionics. The boy's broad-minded, cultivated Jewish parents and idyllic rural home provide an enviable backdrop to the protagonist's initiation into the ars amatoria.
