After watching this
movie, I'm not entirely sure why it is called Fiore. But that doesn’t detract
from the movie. It is a sweet saccharine love story that ends predictably but
properly. It follows a young romance that develops in a detention center. At times
it almost feels like Orange is the New Black, humanizing criminals. The
detention center isn't all bad. There are opportunities to have fun and make
friends. It is almost even an uplifting image of Italian social services. I can
only imagine that it is probably an inaccurate depiction but I can't say for
sure. Daphne Soccia is a refreshing newcomer, playing in every scene and
stealing many of them. I wasn't crazy about the male lead, Josciua Algeri. I
can't quite say why, cause it's not like he was bad, I just didn't think his
chemistry with Daphne worked quite right.
