Voted 2017 film of the year by The Guardian’s critics.
It’s the summer of 1983 in the north of Italy. Elio Perlman (Timothée Chalamet) is a precocious 17-year-old American who spends his days in his family’s 17th century villa lazily transcribing music and flirting with his friend Marzia (Esther Garrel). Oliver (Armie Hammer), a handsome graduate student working on his doctorate arrives as the annual summer intern tasked with helping Elio’s father (Michael Stuhlbarg), an eminent professor specializing in Greco-Roman culture.
Elio and Oliver discover a summer that will alter their lives forever.
Directed by Luca Guadagnino, written by James Ivory, and based on the novel by André Aciman.
