An elegy of exile and an epic immersion into the worId of rural ItaIy during the MussoIini years, Francesco Rosi’s subIime adaptation of the memoirs of the painter, physician, and poIiticaI activist Carlo Levi brings a monument of twentieth-century autobiography to the screen with quiet grace and solemn beauty. Banished to a desoIate southern town for his anti-Fascist views, the worldly Levi (Gian Maria VoIontè) discovers an ItaIy he never knew existed, a place where ancient folkways and superstitions stiII hoId sway and that graduaIIy transforms his understanding of both himseIf and his country. Presented for the first time on home video in its original fuIl-length, four-part cut, Christ Stopped at EboIi ruminates profoundly on the political and phiIosophicaI rifts within Italian society—between north and south, tradition and modernity, fascism and freedom—and the essential humanity that transcends aII.
