Alice Rohrwacher's (Happy As Lazzaro, The Wonders) La Chimera is a captivating fable of lost love and an ethereal spiritual journey that follows a melancholic British archaeologist caught up in the illegal trafficking of ancient finds.
Riparbella, Tuscany, early ’80s. Arthur (Josh O’Connor) has just been released from prison. Yearning for his old lover, Beniamina, the daughter of an ageing local aristocrat (Isabella Rossellini), he falls in with a group of tombaroli (tomb robbers), a rowdy, Fellini-esque crew of twentysomethings who claim to work as farmers and entertainers, but instead pilfer the area’s ancient burial sites for Etruscan earthenware and ornaments to sell on the black market.
Located halfway between the dead and the living, continuing Rohrwacher’s project of mining and mythologising of her country’s past, La Chimera creates its own wild, improbable fictional space and draws you inside and under its spell. Beautifully shot by Hélène Louvart, this is an ode to the power and fragility of lovely things, and a cautionary tale about how easily they may be lost.
