Synopsis

A day in the life of an unfaithful married couple and their steadily deteriorating relationship in Milan.

Cinema Atlas Connection
I like Antonioni's work, especially the ambiguity he created, the open-endedness, where it's not so much about the plot but the exploration of feelings. I admire films like L'Avventura, Eclipse, and La Notte. I also like Tarkovsky very much.
