Fasten Your Seatbelts

Directed by Ferzan Özpetek1h 50m2014

Elena and Antonio seem not to be made for each other. They are too different in terms of character, life choices, worldview, and the way they relate to others. They are total opposites. However, they are overwhelmed by a mutual attraction they're trying hard to avoid; but to which they succumb to.

Our read: Fasten Your Seatbelts (2014) reads as a neutral, steady, grounded drama · comedy entry — gentle in intensity, intimate in scope, measured in temperature, ambivalent in outlook.
