A boy on a moped is always a boy on a moped. It would seem that European cinema, in contrast to commercial, aimed only at obtaining American profits, is dramatic, tragic, but not always. Perhaps this film will come to fans of the subculture of fashion, but then this film is not even for a narrow, but for a very narrow audience, and I can not imagine how many such people there are in our country. A boy on a scooter with his girlfriend carries the ashes of his deceased father to spread it over the sea coast. The film lacks integrity.
Mods are a youth subculture in England of the 50s, 60s, children of mostly wealthy parents, urban intelligentsia. They rode on Italian scooters, then they were called scooters, in every possible, sometimes grotesquely decorated them with an immeasurable number of light bulbs, horns, mirrors, and wore long green canvas cloaks to protect their fashionable costumes (where the name came from) from bad weather.
Something reminiscent of the French ' Microbe and gasoline' Michel Gondry, but here and ' children' older, and the general cultural problem is less affected.
Watch only after studying the subculture of fashions, otherwise nothing will be clear.
