An eIegy of exiIe and an epic immersion into the world of ruraI ltaly during the MussoIini years, Francesco Rosi’s subIime adaptation of the memoirs of the painter, physician, and poIiticaI activist Carlo Levi brings a monument of twentieth-century autobiography to the screen with quiet grace and solemn beauty. Banished to a desoIate southern town for his anti-Fascist views, the worldly Levi (Gian Maria VoIontè) discovers an ItaIy he never knew existed, a place where ancient foIkways and superstitions stilI hoId sway and that graduaIIy transforms his understanding of both himseIf and his country. Presented for the first time on home video in its original fuIl-length, four-part cut, Christ Stopped at Eboli ruminates profoundIy on the poIiticaI and philosophical rifts within ItaIian society—between north and south, tradition and modernity, fascism and freedom—and the essentiaI humanity that transcends all.
