And though Italy's charming corners are on full display, the show finds beauty in the mundanity of the base at every turn. The eight-episode drama follows the characters as they navigate first loves, identity, and ever-evolving friendships, in a country not their own. This time, the story-which follows two American 14-year-olds, Caitlin and Fraser-is set on an American military base in the seaside town of Chioggia, near Venice. In his latest project, We Are Who We Are, a HBO series that premiered last month, Guadagnino and his team do it again. We're talking Italy beyond the Florences, the Milans, the Romes-these are the fishing villages and lemon tree-covered countryside that Americans cross the Atlantic hoping to discover. If his last film Call Me By Your Name wasn't enough of an indication, Italian filmmaker Luca Guadagnino has a knack for enthralling coming-of-age stories, with dreamy slices of Italy as his backdrop of choice.
