Storia
The film 'Loss of Sexual Innocence' explores the sexual development of its protagonist, a filmmaker, through three pivotal stages of his life. At age five, he experiences an innocent encounter with a girl that leaves him bewildered and confused about his feelings. Fast forward to his early teens, he becomes involved in a sexual relationship with an older woman, further complicating his understanding of his sexuality. Later, as a teenager in 1950s Tunisia where he is embarking on his first film shoot, he gets entangled with an Italian couple who seduce him into participating in their volatile dynamics. This leads to tragic consequences: the killing of a local boy and subsequently, the brutal revenge murder of the woman by the boy's friends. Finally, we see the director in his current life, married to a seemingly cold woman, suggesting that his sexual and emotional journey continues to evolve.
