I Am Love
Why this pick
Guadagnino again turns sensual detail, charged glances, and Italian landscapes into a luxuriant portrait of desire destabilising an enclosed emotional world.
03
The Lost Daughter
Why this pick
Its vacation setting and watchful, psychologically intimate perspective create a similarly disquieting mood, where small social encounters gather intense private meaning.
04
Stranger by the Lake
Why this pick
A summer lakeside setting, erotic fixation, and deceptively calm rhythms generate escalating menace with the same unnerving contrast between leisure and danger.

The Souvenir
Why this pick

01 / THE STORY
A little about the film.
In an isolated villa on the small Italian island of Pantelleria, world-famous rock singer Marianne Lane is on holiday with her filmmaker lover Paul. She is recovering from surgery and has lost her voice, communicating only by signs and occasional whispers. He is in recovery from alcohol addiction and a suicide attempt. Neither speaks Italian but solitude is what both need, until an aeroplane from Rome brings a man neither wants to see.
