CGiii Comment
Thelma & Louise go Italian...
The first feature from Stambrini - and, it looks like her last.
It's just too clumsy and unrefined.
Awkwardly awkward and reliant upon incredulity.
Better luck next time - you'll need it.

The(ir) Blurb...
Fiery, dark-haired Stella, an intense auto mechanic, and nervous, blonde Eleonora (aka Lenni) are young and in love, and are from opposite ends of the social spectrum. They operate a gas station peacefully, until Lenni's mother appears and voices her disapproval of their lesbian romance. When Stella takes action in the heat of the moment, blood flies and the young women end up with a corpse on their hands. The lovers realize they must flee in order to stay together.
