Euskadi 1985. El colegio ha terminado, por fin llegan las ansiadas vacaciones. Marcos y sus tres amigos, José Antonio, Paquito y Toni, reciben expectantes la llegada del verano, un verano prometedor sobre todo porque a sus doce años poco importa dónde, ni cuándo, ni cómo. Recorrerán las horas en el laberinto que la vida les ha deparado, en una Euskadi antigua, luchadora, convulsa. Un laberinto de paredes grafiteras, donde rebotan las pelotas de goma y los sueños de libertad; cubierto de un cielo gris prefabricado en cooperativas, donde la muerte y la vida ya no mantienen relaciones formales.
At the height of his fame, Oscar Wilde angers the Marquis of Queensberry by having what is (correctly) believed to be a romantic relationship with Queensberry's son Lord Alfred Douglas ("Bosie"), who is twenty years Wilde's junior. When Queensberry slanders Wilde, the artist decides to take the matter to court and brings about his own downfall.
A Venetian musician at La Fenice theatre is affected by an incurable disease. By chance he meets his ex-wife who is now living with another man. She finally realizes that she is still in love with him.One of the most romantic films ever made and that still bears the pass of time despite some camera cliches of the 70's. Venice at its best is the setting for a poignant story of lovers parting for ever in a day's time. Sensitive and powerfully emotional, but never corny, with Musante and Bolkan as passional as you may wish lovers can be. A wonderful soundtrack and a beautiful cinematography help to make this film be a delight thirty-two years after it was made. Not to be missed.
