Botticelli nudes in lush landscapes
It is a hypnotic experience watching the handsome Italian men and women in this film as they lounge, discuss simple things, repair their Vespas, or prepare french toast while completely nude. Simple voice over -- as this film appears to have been shot without sync sound -- conveys youthful observations on life, while grainy film stock captures lush landscapes and their natural, toned torsos. You'd think with this kind of high-art mindedness there would be pretentiousness as well, but gracefully, this is not the case. This is a film (or perhaps a sexual-political manifesto?) that captures a dream-like idealism from which the world's civilisations could learn a lesson or two ...bohemia, au naturel, is a peaceful, humane place, unencumbered by the desire for weapons, aggression, or war. Who needs jealousy, rage or hatred when the beauty that surrounds you, a roll in the sheets and a deliciously prepared meal is so infinitely accessible?
