Annalisa (2011)

Directed by Pippo Mezzapesa

Overview

The friendship between two Southern Italy kids is tested by their meeting with a young girl who’s attempted suicide after failing to get married. Based on the novel “Il paese delle spose infelici” (literally, “Village of the Sad Brides”, which is also the original title of this film) this elegantly photographed coming-of-age tale has sensitivity to spare but its stylish, yet understated, attitude doesn’t easily win viewers over.

Length 82 minutes
