Synopsis
Opening Night --
The sublime Giuletta Masina stars in Fellini's first color film, a
phantasmagoria of dreams and memories of an upper class lady named Giulietta
spending the summer in her beautiful villa in Fregene. During a party for
her wedding anniversary a séance takes place in which raffish and erotic
ghosts are evoked, together with innuendos of her husband¹s presumed
betrayals. Giulietta struggles between her stiff moral rules and the
temptation to live without inhibitions, and confronts her inner world. This
newly restored 35mm print reveals Fellini's fantasy that is developed
through colored illuminations as it was shot by the great Gianni di Venanzo
in hues ranging from delicate pastels to garish primaries.
