Belle Epoque

Belle Epoque primarily evokes a sense of Humor, Love, Joy, and Happiness through its charming and lighthearted portrayal of a young man's romantic entanglements with four distinct sisters. The audience experiences Anticipation and Curiosity as they await Fernando's choice, coupled with Hope for his romantic future. Underlying these positive emotions are Empathy for the characters' dilemmas, and a subtle Nostalgia and Melancholy stemming from the film's idyllic 1931 setting and the bittersweet nature of love and choices, characteristic of its dramatic elements. Relief is also present from the protagonist's initial escape and finding refuge.
