CGiii Comment

Suspend all belief and be transported...into bittersweet, melodic mayhem.

Ozpetek keeps delivering delicately sculpted films...when will Hollywood start knocking on his door? He has the skill, talent and, ability to flood the world with his vision.

Tenderly touching...such a beautiful film.

He comes Rome and starts to work in a bakery. Also, at the same time, he tries to be an actor. At first, he stays with his cousin, Maria , but then he rents a house.
