Details
La Chimera (2023), directed by Alice Rohrwacher, follows Arthur, a melancholic English archaeologist (Josh O’Connor) in 1980s Italy, as he navigates the shadowy world of tomb raiders hunting for ancient Etruscan artifacts. Drifting between dreamlike realism and magical fable, the film explores themes of loss, greed, and the elusive nature of desire—both for buried treasure and for a vanished love. With its lush cinematography and poetic storytelling, La Chimera weaves a haunting tale of obsession, the passage of time, and the blurred line between the living and the dead.
