A Brief Vacation
For everyone who has had a private moment of love. Or wishes for one.
Directed by Vittorio De Sica
Produced by Verona Produzione, Azor Films
A tender, melancholic portrait of a burdened woman finding unexpected romance and self-discovery during a fleeting escape from her constrained life.
Forced to support herself, her children, her physically incapacitated husband and her obtrusive brother and mother, a downtrodden working woman contracts tuberculosis. She is granted a brief vacation at a health spa, where a whole new world — and potential new life — is opened up to her.
