Paolo Taviani‘s first film following the death of his brother in 2018 (and his first solo feature as a writer-director) proved to be a beguiling and beautiful elegy for Vittorio. It’s a celebration of post-war Italian cinema and a return to the fertile stories of Luigi Pirandello, including the bizarre saga of the burial of the author’s ashes.
