Synopsis
Agostino, jeune garçon de 12 ans, éprouve une passion à la limite de l'inceste envers sa mère. Ils passent ensemble un mois de vacances à Venise. Renzo, l'amant de circonstance de sa mère, bouleverse la vie affective du jeune garçon qui la pensait inaccessible au désir et tout à lui. Le garçon, par défi, se lie avec une bande de ragazzi, gamins de la lagune, livrés à eux-mêmes, et qui ont pour chef un homme qui est attiré par Agostino. Cela provoque une forte jalousie du jeune amant de l'homme et entraîne les moqueries des garçons de la bande. Cet été sera pour Agostino un passage de l'enfance à l'adolescence et une perte de ses illusions.Actors

Kitano plays Machisu, who is born into a wealthy family, but loses both his parents as a child. When his father (Akira Nakao) commits suicide after the collapse of his business, Machisu's stepmother (Mariko Tsutsui) sends him to live with an aunt and uncle who mistreat him and finally send him to an orphanage. As a young man, Machisu (Yurei Yanagi) attends art school and finds his style of painting challenged by the more experimental and conceptual work turned in by his classmates. Machisu takes a job in order to pay for art school, and strikes up a friendship with a fellow co-worker, Sachiko (Kumiko Aso), who seems to grasp his artistic vision. They get married and have a daughter. As he grows older, Mashisu's obsession with contemporary art controls his whole life, leaving him insensitive of everything around him, including the death of his own daughter (Eri Tokunaga) and his wife's desertion. He tries to please the art critics, remaining penniless. He is caught up in a fire and almost dies. Losing all his previous works, he is left with a single half-burnt soda can, which he assesses at 200,000 yen and tries to sell. This ends up kicked carelessly away when his wife picks him up from the street. They walk away together, seemingly finally rid of his artistic obsession.
