This film is destined to be listed among those which have little meaning, but has all the force of a classic. The film follows the summer exploits of a group of European boys who are invited to a 'Play' near an Italian seaside. Once there, the play becomes a search for answers. Each boy begins a quest to learn what life means to himself. From the audience point of view, the scenic tour encompasses the sea, land and some of the most beautiful landscapes available in Italy. The haunting melody accompanies the children's quest and despite it's non-resolution, offers an artistic interpretation of what the director was creating. The actors are quite uninhibited with the abundance of nudity, but they carry the Avant Guard movie to it's abrupt end. All in all, a good film for those with an open mind. *****
