Dante vs. Mohammed Ali

A poem of love. Delicate, intense, seductive, bitter. In a vilage, a box match between two teens. A first round and the refuse to fight of one of boys. And the prepaires of parents for revange.

From this, the story itself, served by Haendel music, by a small show, by sexual encounter , by the fragility of one of them and the pragmatism of the other.

Familiar cinematic influences and the raft- box ring as a drop from Andrei Tarkovsky.

A great short film for touch of a sort of Rococco. Or only an inspired reflection of love at the teen age, in a fascinating , so fragile mix of feelings, emotions, frond.

I saw it as a profound inspired poem. First for the acting of young lead actors. Second, for cinematography. Short, just seductive , in profound sense.
