A troubled teenage romance; the tragi-comic despair of an elderly teacher; the headmistress turned reluctant good Samaritan and an idealistic teacher trying to salvage the academic career of a truant are all fashioned into rich rewarding journeys with bittersweet, believable and sometimes uncertain conclusions. Touching and shot through with clever, believable observation and wry humour, The Red & the Blue confirms Piccioni as a singular filmmaker, who deserves more regular attention.
