LA CHIMERA 15

Dir: Alice Rohrwacher | Italy, France, Switzerland | 2023 | 133 mins | Subtitled

Cast | Josh O’Connor, Carol Duarte, Vincenzo Nemolato, Isabella Rossellini, Alba Rohrwacher

Josh O’Connor (Netflix’s The Crown, God’s Own Country, Challengers) plays a melancholy tomb-robber in Alice Rohrwacher’s (The Wonders, Happy as Lazzaro) captivating fable of love and treasure.

Tuscany, 1980s: An Englishman in a grimy linen suit, Arthur (O’Connor) is fresh out of prison. Yearning for his former lover, the daughter of a local aristocrat (Isabella Rossellini), he falls in with the tombaroli, a rowdy crew who loot the area’s ancient burial sites for artefacts to sell on the black market.

Located halfway between the dead and the living, with a wonderful performance from O’Connor and beautifully shot by Hélène Louvart, La Chimera is a wild, sweet ode to the power and fragility of lovely things, and a cautionary tale about how easily they may be lost.
