A24 knows sex sells, so it’s no surprise that the first U.S. trailer for Parthenope is full of seduction. Newcomer Celeste Dalla Porta, playing the titular Parthenope, appears in various stages of undress throughout, emerging dripping from the sea in a bikini, draped in religious jewelry that barely covers her modesty, tangled up in what looks like a pre-threesome foreplay with co-stars Dario Aita and Daniele Rienzo.

It’s all sun, sea, and sex. Only one line, from Gary Oldman, playing a boozy John Cheever, to Parthenope: “Are you aware of the destruction your beauty causes?” suggests some darkness lurking beneath.
