It's frustrating to watch a film that's ostensibly headed along a particular trajectory but that continually stumbles on the path it takes to get there. That's precisely what happens in this period piece coming out/coming of age story set in 1938 Italy.
But, even when this offering apparently approaches that destination, it takes yet another unexpected left-field turn and subsequently leads to what the filmmaker herself admits is a deliberately ambiguous conclusion
