Blood Bath

In a shadow‑kissed city where neon signs flicker above dim galleries and the echo of jazz drifts through rain‑slick streets, an unsettling blend of bohemian life and ancient myth hangs in the air. The world feels both contemporary and timeless, a place where art studios nest beneath crumbling bell towers and beat‑nik cafés showcase paintings that seem to stare back. Beneath the surface of this vibrant cultural scene, whispers of a centuries‑old curse linger, suggesting that beauty and blood might be more entwined than anyone is willing to admit.

Daisy drifts through this nocturnal landscape as an art student and model, balancing her ambitions with a restless love for Max, a free‑spirited beat‑nik whose poetry is as tangled as the city’s alleyways. Their relationship, already strained by creative passions and personal doubts, becomes the lens through which the audience glimpses the fragile line between intimacy and isolation. Alongside them, Antonio Sordi commands a studio of his own, a reclusive painter whose work is haunted by a legendary ancestor—a figure whose name once invoked fear and fascination in whispered folklore. Though his demeanor is charismatic, an undercurrent of something older and more predatory glints in his eyes, hinting at a legacy that refuses to stay buried.

The cast expands with Dorian, an avant‑garde ballerina whose movements echo the fragile grace of a moth drawn to flame, and Donna, a sister whose knowledge of the old legend offers a cryptic map of the darkness that may be awakening. Together, they navigate a world where midnight gallery openings, deserted streets, and the scent of wet stone become backdrops for uneasy flirtations and unspoken tensions. As modern dating rituals collide with echoes of the infamous blood‑countess, the film promises a sensual, gothic tableau where desire and dread pulse in tandem, inviting viewers to wonder just how deep the shadows run beneath the city’s glittering façade.
