Join Munster Social Group at glór in Ennis for an evening of cinema featuring *Vermiglio*.

1944\. Towards the end of WWII in Vermiglio – a high\, remote mountain village in the Italian Alps – the arrival of Pietro\, a deserted soldier\, disrupts the dynamics of a local family\, changing them forever\. Pietro\, a Sicilian\, keeps mostly to himself\. However\, he establishes a mild flirtation with Lucia – the eldest daughter of Cesare\, the much\-respected village schoolteacher\. Soon\, Pietro and Lucia are falling in love\. But their pairing sets in motion a series of events that pushes the family towards tragedy and shakes the entire village\.

Told in four chapters, each set in a different season, Maura Delpero’s film is powerful and stunning. Beautifully photographed and filled with emotion, it’s a story of women, war, and family.

* Winner – Silver Lion, Grand Jury Prize, Maura Delpero; Venice Film Festival 2024

**Reviews:**
*‘The remarkable, raw-boned and ravishing Vermiglio takes place in the past but operates like a future family secret playing out in the present tense, a perspective that is not quite Godlike, but comes from that which we might as well call God.’*’
\- Variety

*‘’Delpero masterfully captures the characters’ experiences and psychology through gesture, performance, and framing rather than dialogue. Krichman’s cinematography, perhaps the best of the year, invokes painting and theater.’’*
\- The Film Stage

★★★★"*It is wonderfully acted with unaffected naturalism by its cast of professionals and newcomers and plays an extravagant, almost shameless pizzicato on the audience’s heartstrings…*"
\- The Guardian
