Edit

Summer 1969 is very special for Andrea a 13 year-old boy who is about to leave, with his family, for a little village on the hills surrounding a great lake in Northern Italy. There he finds, like every year, his uncles, aunts, cousins, a fascinating mother, a father always away on business trips, a grandfather who does not want to grow old and a granny who talks to trees. During this summer he makes his first discoveries about life and love and abandons the illusions and the magic of childhood. —Salvatore Santangelo <pappagone2@libero.it>

Lush Cinematography-Rocking Sountrack

This film just played at the Marin Italian Film Festival.

The cinematography was excellent as well as the soundtrack.

The original music in the soundtrack was composed by Peppino D'Agostino, a self taught guitarist and singer from Sicilia.

There is also music from Cream,Eric Clapton,& the Rolling Stones.

It is a story of a young boy coming to terms with what love means in his life and the lives around him.
