Plots(1)
Michelangelo Antonioni's rarely seen and unjustly underrated masterwork - perhaps due to its renowned sexual explicitness. Identification Of A woman is the maverick director's own bookend to his lifelong exploration of the imprecise nature of human relationships, incommunicability and alienation. After his wife leaves him, a film director (ostensibly Antonioni's alter-ego, played by Tomas Milian) is in a limbo, searching for a muse, whilst preparing his new film. He enters into a passionate affair with a striking young aristocratic woman (Daniela Silverio). Soon a stranger warns him, with threats, to stop seeing her and some weeks later, after a lover's row, she vanishes… Whilst searching for her, he meets a beautiful young actress (Christine Boisson), whose curiosity is piqued to find the missing woman.
