Le signorine di Wilko

I saw it last week, but I still think about it. It was the set, the light, the costumes ("... the characteristics of women´s fashion of the 40s in a war context. It is not by chance that women´s fashion of that time is at the same time masculine, almost brutal and with a military-like style, but also erotic and sexually provocative"), everything intensely realistic (hyper-realistic), perfect for a story about lives gone different than expected, about desires looking for the chance to be fulfilled. It was the beautiful work of latvian director Alvis Hermanis, who has left me amazed for the second time. And it was the italian, of course. The unsurpassed language of desiderio.
