This is an interesting adaptation of Arthur Schnitzler's Traumnovelle, that inspired the well known Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut too. I never saw the entire film, but it used to be broadcasted on Telecapri (an Italian regional TV station) years ago. Knowing Stanley Kubrick's meticulosity in making films, I'm sure he knew this Italian version of Traumnovelle and, for all I can remember of "Ad un passo dall'aurora", the piano music score was quite similar to the one he chose in Eyes Wide Shut. The film's set in Venice: the atmosphere of this unique city adds a lot of thrilling to the story. The fun part (for me) was seeing Gerardo Amato starring in this adventure, 'cause in my memory he'll always belong to the role of Mario Merola's son in Zappatore!
Hey, I'm still waiting for the next TV passage of this nice flick!
