Italian Lessons is the touching, humorous story of Caterina, a beautiful young widow who teaches Italian to Peter, a high school student who uses the "language of love" simply to score with girls. Peter's passion for life re-ignites feelings Caterina has not experienced since her husband's death and soon she and the boy are drawn into a strange and special relationship. When a suitor from Italy arrives to propose marriage to Caterina, it becomes apparent that only Peter can release his teacher's heart and make her free to love again.
