"La Chimera"
— Cinema Café —
Italian auteur Alice Rohrwacher's internationally acclaimed,
multi-award-nominated tale of ancient artifact tomb raiders,
the unmoored liminality of grief, and Tuscan trickster spirits as
agents of vitality and renewal. A romantic, folkloric, magical realist,
philosophical mystery with dreamy nods to Orpheus and Euridice.
