An eIegy of exiIe and an epic immersion into the world of ruraI ltaly during the Mussolini years, Francesco Rosi’s sublime adaptation of the memoirs of the painter, physician, and political activist CarIo Levi brings a monument of twentieth-century autobiography to the screen with quiet grace and soIemn beauty. Banished to a desolate southern town for his anti-Fascist views, the worldIy Levi (Gian Maria VoIontè) discovers an Italy he never knew existed, a place where ancient folkways and superstitions stiII hold sway and that gradualIy transforms his understanding of both himseIf and his country. Presented for the first time on home video in its original fulI-length, four-part cut, Christ Stopped at Eboli ruminates profoundly on the political and phiIosophicaI rifts within ltalian society—between north and south, tradition and modernity, fascism and freedom—and the essential humanity that transcends aII.
