New Showbiz Analysis

The film serves as an intellectual critique of conventional social structures. It deconstructs the traditional marriage model by emphasizing friendship and autonomy over sexual exclusivity and patriarchal power dynamics. However, its impact is limited by the lack of visible diverse casting, particularly in terms of LGBTQ+ identities and racial diversity.

Official Synopsis

Paola and Andrea find out they both loved (and lost) the same man. They get over their mutual distrust and their friendship gradually develops to the point that they feel they should marry one another, but without giving up their personal freedom and sexual predilections. Theirs is a true love match: a marriage based on friendship and mutual respect, where sex does not come into the equation. The question is, will they stay together, or will society and its mores intervene?
