A Young couple, Gitti and Chris are on vacation on the Italian island of Sardinia. It is basically a film about their relation and young love. The couple are seemingly mismatched. Chris is a little uptight, arrogant, intellectual and elusive. Gitti is a free spirit. She gets annoying and he get mean and huffy. Everything is fine when together by themselves, but then they meet an older more established couple and they start to compare themselves to this couple and it seems unfavorable, at least to them. The relationship starts to disintegrate.
I thought it was a real interesting study on relationships. I also like the acting and the setting. It is a 'talky' film, which is not to everyone's taste, but it had a lot of interesting themes being discussed and acted out.
