Summary: From case cover: Set in 1917, this feature tells of a boy's coming-of-age amongst the aristocratic, conservative, decadent upper classes. Julio Garcia Castano is a powerful imperious landowner who is attempting to mould his son, also named Julio, in his own image. On the boy's 15th birthday, he organizes a party and invites the local hookers over to "make a man of him." The plan misfires when young Julio falls in love with one of the girls, precipitating the ruthless intervention of Julio senior. Don Julio is ruthless as well in his dealings with the local church. His family once donated land to a neighboring monastery, but now Don Julio wants it back. Caiozzi's atmospheric film effectively treats issues of social class, sex, religion and family.
