A series of random suicides in Rome, Italy are attributed to a heatwave, but a young pathologist named Simona—who is working on a thesis about murders disguised as suicides—suspects otherwise. When a young girl associated with Simona’s playboy father ends up dead in another apparent suicide, Simona teams up with the girl’s priest brother to prove she was murdered and track down the unknown serial killer.

Viewing Notes
Shot and edited more like a horror film, with sometimes jarring cuts that seem to be more about keeping a measure than the actual visuals; paired with an increasingly hysterical group of characters that seem to be going collectively mad. They often react in jarring, over-the-top ways. Couple the hysteria with Mimsy Farmer’s character’s revulsion to sex and you’ve got an amazingly off-putting cast of characters. I was really hoping everyone involved would die by the end because there wasn’t anyone you really felt sympathy for.
