[The title] is an evocative question made even more evocative by the fact that the question, the answer, the character of Solange and even the name Solange arent mentioned until 70 minutes into the movie. Up until then, its kind of a murder mystery, kind of a movie about adultery, sort of a movie about gossiping schoolgirls, and theres, like, ESP or something going on. Honestly, its weird. -- Kyle Anderson, Nerdist

Backed by Ennio Morricones abundantly creepy score, this giallo whodunit finds Fabio Testi (REVOLVER, GARDEN OF THE FINZI-CONTINIS) as a college prof with a taste for his female students whos blamed for a string of murders. Top-shelf arthouse filmmaking, endless jazzy twists. And, director Massimo Dallamano was cinematographer on Leones A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS and FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE!

A sexually sadistic killer is preying on the girls of St. Marys school. Student Elizabeth witnessed one of the murders, but her hazy recollections of a knife-wielding figure in black do nothing to further the polices investigations. Why is the killer choosing these young women? And what does it have to do with a girl named Solange?
