Quick Answer

What is Annie about?

Annie is a 1976 Italian-British drama film directed by Massimo Dallamano about a convent-educated teenager who, after her wealthy lover's fortunes collapse, is left on her own in Hong Kong and swept into the world of elite socialites.

Programmer's Pick

Seventies Euro-erotica rarely gets more pointed than Annie: barely out of the nunnery, our heroine is sampling every forbidden fruit Hong Kong’s upper crust has to offer. If your passport says 'adults only,' this is your ticket.

Overview

Annie follows the sexual and emotional awakening of its seventeen-year-old protagonist, newly out of convent school and living as the young mistress of a middle-aged financier. When his business empire crumbles during a trip to Hong Kong, Annie finds herself penniless and vulnerable in a city both glamorous and unforgiving. She is taken in by a group of affluent socialites, introducing her to a lavish and morally complex world where boundaries blur and innocence quickly evaporates. This coming-of-age drama is steeped in eroticism and decadence, set against the vibrant backdrop of 1970s Hong Kong.
