Harry Voss, 12, is young and naive. Love, for him, is romantic love between princes and princesses demurely kissing each other on the mouth. His father is a hero who kidnapped his mother and married her on a lonely mountain peak... Later on, he'll do the same. But Harry has a lot to learn. He learns about 'being hot' and 'fucking' and about what you have to do when you're alone and 'feel the itch'. He also learns that there are handsome men and ugly ones, that love can be unfair. That one can find comfort in drinking... but above all he learns that man is capable of anything - absolutely anything! - to get his fair share of love. SCREENED/AWARDED AT: San Sebastian International Film Festival,

Customer Reviews

very memorable
I saw this movie in 1987. The story has stayed with me for 22 years. It was heartbreaking. I wish people in the U.S. had access to it.

It is not a "dog"
It is a great shame this film is not available in U.S. format. I saw it years ago in a theater--with subtitles. If you have a heart, this film can break it. The soundtrack adds greatly to the experience;probably the best ever use of "Love Hurts" (Everly Bros.) as part of the soundtrack.
