CGiii Comment

You don't have to be a child to be naive...a school teacher can be too.

This has a rare beauty (Lena is a prime example) - the impending danger is imminent, inevitable and heart-breaking.

Sensitive and special.

The(ir) Blurb...

Lorenzo, a handsome first-year professor in an isolated Italian village, falls under the spell of his most beguiling pupil, a dark-haired, starry-eyed 12-year-old named Duilio. As Lorenzo's relationship with his heartless girlfriend deteriorates, he finds himself walking the fields with his loving student. When their idyllic friendship is questioned by Duilio's suspicious stepmother, Lorenzo is brought to a crisis of conscience.
