Three young women on a holiday with friends decide to visit a nearby island, risking a dangerous night time trip by boat.

They experience the first stirrings of love during a Mediterranean vacation as each girl follows her own path with local boys, the husband of a beautiful pianist, with another girl or dreaming on a platonic love.

Laura, les ombres de l'été AKA Laura, Shadows of aSummer (1979) - David Hamilton



Amazon review:
This movie is about a sculptor who loves "making" statues and paintings of young nudes. He becomes obsessed with the daughter (Laura) of a friend, whom he knew a long time ago. He manages to get her mother to take pictures of her for him to use in making a sculpture of her body. Laura develops a crush on him (as did her mother) and after he is blinded, offers to help him finish the statue that he started by posing for him herself. He's able to finish the clay sculpture by using his hands to feel along her body. They both get caught up in the moment and she becomes a women.

Those who argue about the plot or dialogue have missed the point of a David Hamilton movie. They simply don't get it. At any rate, there are a few story plots intertwined in this movie if you can pick them out.
