Love in the Mirror (1999)
Amor nello specchio
In 17th century France, a theater troupe is allowed by its patron to go to Paris to produce an erotic play. The head of the troupe dreams of fame while his wife, the leading actress, and a new leading girl fall for each other.
🏳️🌈 Salvatore Maira's Italian drama explicitly features an all-female theater troupe rehearsing a production, layering their shifting codes, verbal flirting, and explicit sáfic encounters with thick subtext.
