Oscar-winning Call Me By Your Name, a beautiful take on first love, encapsulates so many of summer’s offerings – riding bikes in the sunshine, sunbathing all day, sunset dips in the sea and eating good food outside. Its Northern Italy setting is easy on the eye too and, on a deeper level, a reflection of what the film is all about – heat, beauty and emotion. Amid the peach trees and the plunge pool, the sense of summer is palpable.
