Primo amore

First Love

Primo amore is a story about the inability to love; it’s the story of a man who’s the victim of his own instincts, the author of his own downfall. Vittorio is an agitated and restless man; he only manages to love a woman when she completely fits his aesthetic criteria; namely being extremely thin. Sonia is a young girl who works as a social volunteer, and she understands her role in society. Yet, in an almost inexplicable way, she is attracted by Vittorio’s dark side. The meeting between Sonia and Vittorio will slowly bring her to the edge of the abyss; treading a tragic and inevitable path. From the novel „Il Cacciatore di Anoressiche“ by Carlo Mariolini.

Ideal heißt, sie muss extrem mager sein. Über eine Annonce lernt er Sonia kennen, eine sympathische, intelligente Frau, die für ihn nur einen Makel hat: Sie ist mit 57 kg zu schwer. Wenn in Matteo Garrones Primo Amore die Kamera während eines Gesprächs zwischen zwei Personen in einer langen Einstellung verbleibt, die beide erfasst und damit auch den Raum, in dem sie sich mit anderen aufhalten, dann ist das eine regelrechte Wohltat. Im Mittelpunkt von Garrones Film steht die Zurichtung einer jungen Frau durch ihren Lebensgefährten. Gleich beim ersten Treffen hat dieser ihr mitgeteilt, dass sie für seine Vorstellungen eigentlich nicht dünn genug ist. Sie bleibt trotzdem, und ganz allmählich schleichen sich ins vordergründige Idyll zu zweit erste Anzeichen dafür ein, dass die Sache noch nicht erledigt ist. Immer wieder gelingen Garrone dabei lange Szenen von großer Eindringlichkeit.
