It is loosely based on a novella by Italian author Cesare Pavese, first published in Italian as La bella estate in 1940 and then in a collection of three novellas under the same name in 1949.[1]
The film, like the novella, is set in 1930s (1938 specifically in the film) Italy and is a coming of age story of juvenile love, hope and defeat.[2]
The film premiered at the Locarno Film Festival in 2023.[3]
