Show Notes
Set in central Italy, a young man navigates worlds both agrarian and metropolitan, past and future, just out of place in any setting. Director Alice Rohrwacher explores religious parallels, including the figures of Lazarus and St. Francis of Assisi, as well as the isolating experience of adolescence, bridging different stages of life layered with distinct worlds and contexts, in this imaginative, award-winning film.
