L'adolescente (The Adolescent) is a 1976 commedia sexy all'italiana film directed by Alfonso Brescia. It starred Sonia Viviani, Daniela Giordano, Dagmar Lassander and Malisa Longo.
Vito Gnaula and Grazia Serritella are a Sicilian couple who marry after a series of turbulent events but Grazia is not willing to consummate their marriage, showing her father's sudden death as an excuse. Vito starts making sexual advances to his late father-in-law's secretary Katia but he has to avoid any scandal for he may lose the rights to his rich father-in-law's inheritance. However, the arrival of Grazia's teenage niece Serenella moves things well beyond Vito's control.
Marco Giusti calls the film a "triumph of Sonia Viviani modelled after Gloria Guida, but in a Regnoli-Brescia version", and praises the female cast led by the graces of Dagmar Lassander and Daniela Giordano.
