Three Winters

Összefoglaló

Three Winters is the story of three episodes in the life of a man for whom the subtle, significant events of childhood lead remorselessly through wartime youth to eventful bitter maturtiy. In each episode the basic theme is love. The relationship between the main character and the girl Diana grows, and is in part formed, in the shadow of the ageing relatives who, in these three momentous winters, surround them. Comic, pitiful, or deeply sinister, the older generation provides a background from which they find it impossible to escape. The old, and the strange characters from the film world of the wartime episode, provide a chorus, and the rain-washed seaside town an unchanging setting. In Three Winters an obsessive love, grown up in the past, reaches its unexpected and yet inevitable conclusion in the present.
