Long Lasting Days

Andrea Rispoli falls in love with Anna Andersson, a Swedish girl who has just inherited the boarding house where he's staying. When Anna is discovered to be suffering from a potentially lethal heart condition, Andrea decides to do whatever it takes to raise the money for he treatment. Even if it means risking his own life...

Directed by Ferdinando Baldi, Long Lasting Days leans on a strong ensemble — Mino Reitano, Ewa Aulin, Eva Czemerys — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1973.
