Movie description:
The Italian childhood fantasy »Little Flames« (Piccoli Fuochi) concerns 5-year-old Tommaso. Proving too much for his parents, Tommaso is often sent to his room, where he interacts with several bizarre »imaginary« playmates who bedevil the servants with their sadistic pranks (the audience is never certain whether the playmates are real or whether the boy is pulling off the pranks himself). Valeria Golino plays the family’s new maid Mara, whom Tommaso takes a liking to. He begs his playmates to leave Mara alone, but out of jealousy they plan an awful revenge on the poor woman. In a startling sequence, Mara’s boyfriend is tied to a bed and set afire. Tommaso confesses to the murder (indeed, as mentioned, he may have done it), but no one believes him capable of so horrible an act. »Little Flames« does not so much end as stop abruptly, with Tommaso bidding his playmates goodbye after they’ve wreaked their last havoc. Be sure not to book this one for your kid’s next birthday party.
A schizophrenic look at the sexual life of a five-year-old boy, from the child’s and the adult’s point of view.
