Michelangelo Antonioni's RED DESERT is a somber tale about Giuliana (Monica Vitti), a young wife and mother struggling to understand her crumbling psyche, as she slowly loses her mind in the midst of a deteriorating environment. Set in a stark gray, heavily industrialized area of rural Italy where Giuliana's husband, Ugo (Carlo Chionetti) works at a factory, and receives an extended visit from a business partner, Corrado (Richard Harris) with whom Giuliana has a strange affair.
