Michelangelo Antonioni’s masterful and enigmatic L'Avventura (1960) is a landmark of world cinema, redefining narrative storytelling and visual poetry. The film follows a group of wealthy Italians on a yachting trip where Anna (Lea Massari) mysteriously disappears on a remote island. As her boyfriend Sandro (Gabriele Ferzetti) and friend Claudia (Monica Vitti) search for her, their initial concern slowly fades, replaced by an unexpected romance and existential unease. Featuring breathtaking cinematography and Antonioni’s signature meditative pacing, L'Avventura is a mesmerizing exploration of alienation and emotional disconnection.
