When youth passes through the Garden of Eden

Lucy brought back an English man from the party, and passed by every window, behind the window stood an old couple who had not had a skin-to-skin kiss for a long time, a man and a woman who had a rift in their relationship, and two young men in the temptation, they watched. Lucy and the English man approached the bedroom caressingly, and that night, behind every window, there was a scene of eroticism, mild or strong. Lucy, on the other hand, just slept peacefully all night. It was her youthful sprouting that infected them and ignited their passion and desire.
I remember at the beginning of the film, the dreamy countryside in Italy, with naked men and women, reminds people of the Garden of Eden. And at the end of the film, the boy says he's going to America, "but it's so beautiful here," Lucy said. The sculptor's wife also wanted to get out of there and go back to her damp and grey hometown, because that was where she really belonged. The sculptor's woman sent the lover away and sent him to his wife. The arrival of Lucy awakened the desire of the residents of the Garden of Eden to return to the world with youth and life. After all, the human world is our real habitat, even if it doesn't look so beautiful.
