Lorenzo, a 14 year old boy, pretends to embark on a school trip to a ski resort and takes refuge in the basement of his building. When his step sister suddenly appears, the experience of both will become unforgettable.
The last feature film by Bernardo Bertolucci, the director who gave us The Last Emperor and The Last Tango in Paris.
It's essentially a film about the social pressure that teens are facing nowadays, and how they deal with this problem (Bertolucci was already 73 years old, the topic was a bit risky for him), and the final result is an ok film, but far from being memorable.
The story lacks on the characters background, but it does have what it takes to keep it from being tedious, thanks to the performances of Jacopo Antinori and Tea Falco.
The fact that only scratchs the surface of the issues and problems of the characters makes it difficult to connect with them.
