1961
Synopsis
Born to a wealthy family in Parma, sixteen-year-old Lorenzo tries to make things right toward Aida, a showgirl whom his older brother has mistreated. In extending kindness and standing up for her, he comes of age.
Editorial
Probing the gap between sexual fantasy and bitter reality, Claudia Cardinale harnesses her legendary beauty to devastating effect in this moving exploration of mistreated womanhood. An underseen gem of Italian cinema, Valerio Zurlini’s dexterous drama turns the May–December romance inside out.
