Respiro

A sunny seaside location and the radiant beauty of Valeria Golino are enough to set the mood in "Respiro", a fitfully effective Italian film. Hollywood never quite figured out what to do with Golino, but she blossoms in this story about a sensual wife who's either free-spirited or manic-depressive, depending on your perspective. Her fisherman husband finally decides to have her sent away for professional help, which only provokes an even more impulsive act from her. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)
