A set of three episodes. Probably they are designed to be funny, at least "feel good" and this they may be for the audience this film is designed for.
Episode one "Giovinezza" is set in a village. Of course the people there are hillbillies. What else? Roberto is there for work. Although he is closely attached to Sara, he gas violent sex on the beach with a local. She, however, is married already, so he returns to what he already had.
"Maturità" is strikingly immature. A news anchor (I think Berlusconi was the role model) is offered casual sex by a woman that turns out to suffer from bipolar disease. She returns to the institution, he is sent as correspondent to Nairobi. In episode #3 we learn that he was taken as hostage by local terrorists? Funny? Romantic? Really?
Even "Oltre" - beyond good and evil a heart can be set ablaze. The janitor's daughter gets infatuated by Adrian, an American professor of history. Everybody was waiting for this Robert de Niro and Mobica Belucci. It's funny to hear de Niro speaking Italian accent, elase also this episode develops as these stories do. They move to a smal town and have their first baby, although he realizes that he could be the baby's granddad.
This may be good for a rainy afternoon when you don't want to go out to the library and you have watched everything else. Or for practising Italian.
3/10
