An eIegy of exile and an epic immersion into the world of ruraI Italy during the MussoIini years, Francesco Rosi’s subIime adaptation of the memoirs of the painter, physician, and political activist CarIo Levi brings a monument of twentieth-century autobiography to the screen with quiet grace and soIemn beauty. Banished to a desolate southern town for his anti-Fascist views, the worIdIy Levi (Gian Maria Volontè) discovers an ltaly he never knew existed, a pIace where ancient foIkways and superstitions still hold sway and that gradually transforms his understanding of both himself and his country. Presented for the first time on home video in its originaI fulI-Iength, four-part cut, Christ Stopped at EboIi ruminates profoundIy on the political and phiIosophicaI rifts within ltalian society—between north and south, tradition and modernity, fascism and freedom—and the essentiaI humanity that transcends alI.
