One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
Set against the backdrop of a 14th century, black plague-stricken Florence, ten young men and women escape to a country estate where they spend their days telling stories of love, fate, and resurrection. Wondrous Boccaccio is a visual and poetic tribute to the stories that emerged from one of the darkest periods in Italian history, and the imaginations that quietly fueled them.
"A historical drama that adapts the classic Decameron, by Giovanni Boccaccio. The Taviani brothers take us back to the Middle Ages, showing the contrast between the chaos Florence was living at the time and the bucolic life chosen by the group of friends starring in the film. A film that certainly makes us reflect."
