Movies Similar to Summer Games (2011)

Rolando Colla's Summer Games tells the tale of a half-dozen kids who end up spending their days together while their various families all stay at the same vacation spot on the Tuscan coast. Twelve-year old Nic (Armando Condolucci) sees his father abuse his mother on a regular basis, but he's drawn to Marie (Fiorella Campanella), the oldest girl in their group of friends. She's desperate to find out what happened to her father, and her mother refuses to give any indication of where he might be. As these two learn hard life lessons, their childlike games take on a more adult tone as the summer goes along, until their last day together leads to an unforgettable adventure. Summer Games was part of the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi
