A 2021 Italian film that catches us by surprize. A sailing summer camp in Sicily provides a perfect opportunity for the lead pair to fall for each other. But her sprained ankle brings forth the reality that we never would imagine.
Elvira Camarrone & Cristian Roberto are so natural that they make us believe in their make believe world. The parents of Sara & his father with auntie are just there to support their story.
Her muscles are weakening . She has this degenerative disease that has no cure. When faced with how to tell him. The short time that she can be with him is very precious. Their journey together is great. Her friend gives her the support she needs.
A well made movie without frills. No pretence & no preaching. Her illness is short & doesn’t linger. I was reminded of “A walk to remember”, “Milli”, ” Ankhiyon Ke jharokhon se”, “Love story” & the more recent with Sushant singh Rajput ‘Dil Behara’ where both are ill.
