Our take
Sun, sex, and spirituality form the backdrop of Mauro Bolognini’s family drama, an intriguing tale of innocence lost to the high life of 1960s Italy. Exploring the conflict between idealistic youth and society’s staunch materialism, this incisive film is anchored by three electric performances.
