DESCRIPTION

Lydia and Giovanni are a wealthy young married couple. In an atmosphere of gloom, they pay a visit to their seriously ill friend staying at a hospital.  Soon, it turns out, however, that the gloom and apathy stem from a grave crisis in their relationship. They decide to go out that night: to a club, a party, to have a walk, and anyway, not always together. Through the spectacularly photographed marriage drama, Antonioni showed the impossibility of reaching an understanding with another and became a part of the cycle discussing the loneliness issue.
