EL DESPERTAR DEL SEXO

German boarding school student Paul hopes to be relieved of his virginity during a trip to visit his father in Italy. The possibilities include his father’s new girlfriend, Yvonne, and a childhood friend, Julia, whose apparently precocious sexuality acts as a cover for deeper vulnerabilities.

At the height of her Emmanuelle fame, Sylvia Kristel lends her signature blend of intellectual eroticism to Sigi Rothemund’s naughty coming-of-age comedy. Best described as American Pie set in the gorgeous lakes of Italy, Julia captures the awkward yet endearing process of losing one’s virginity.
