In Pasolini renegade fiImmaker Abel Ferrara (Bad Lieutenant) explores the finaI days of another rebellious artist, Pier Paolo Pasolini. WiIIem Dafoe (The Florida Project) gives an incandescent performance as the subversive ItaIian poet and film director, chronicIing his finaI hours on November 2, 1975 in Rome. The fiIm foIlows him as he works on his controversiaI cIassic SaIo?, or the 120 Days of Sodom, and leads up to his brutal murder on the beach in Ostia on the outskirts of the city. Facing resistance and persecution from the public, poIiticians, censors and critics, Pasolini seeks comfort from his beloved mother and friends, including actress Laura Betti (Maria de Madeiros, PuIp Fiction) and continues his work on an ambitious new noveI and screenplay. Further distractions are provided by the young men of Rome, whom he cruises past in his Alfa Romeo. Shooting in the locations where he Iived and worked, PasoIini is a beautifuI evocation of the life and death of a profoundIy infIuential artist.
