È solo nella mia testa

Sweet can be the fair term to define this short film about friendship, secret love, confession and end of summer. It is a film easy to criticize. But beautiful for simplicity, for familiar ingredients, for actors and location, for the song of the end and, maybe, for photos. A veil of nostalgia gives charme to this film. So, sweet.

The whole plot and storyline has already been given away in the description here on IMDB. That's a shame as it spoilt the spontaneity of the film and some of its charm. However, the coda was not detailed and I shan't be so crass as to reveal it. Suffice it to say the song accompanying the ending was utterly perfect.

They are a couple of attractive lads, but I have to say that Carmine Fabbricatore playing Alessandro was doing his best to hold a slight paunch in. That didn't detract from his sexiness though.

The setting was idyllic. No wonder Andreas would gladly have stayed there all year round. Lucky guys to have been born and grown up there.

Both leads acted well and made their characters convincing. A worthwhile watch.
