Storia
Lucy Harmon, a 19-year-old American girl, arrives in Tuscany to stay with her family's friend, an English artist living in a villa. Four years prior, Lucy had kissed an Italian boy while visiting and has been corresponding with him since. She hopes to rekindle their relationship during this visit. Lucy brings with her her late mother's diary containing poems that suggest Lucy was conceived on the hilltop where the villa resides. Lucy is determined to find out who her father is, with three potential candidates being the Italian war correspondent she once kissed, an English playwright in residence who is dying from a terminal disease, or the artist who uses chainsaws for his sculptures. The artist's family and their American lover are unaware of Lucy's quest but are intrigued by her virginity.
