The long journey of Parthenope’s life, from her birth in 1950 till today. A feminine epic, devoid of heroism but brimming with an inexorable passion for freedom, Naples, and the faces of love—all those true, pointless, and unspeakable loves. The perfect Capri summer, the lightheartedness of youth. Which ends in ambush. Life, be it ordinary or memorable, knows how to be very long. The passing of time offers up a vast repertoire of emotions. And there in the background, so close and so very far, is Naples, this ineffable city that bewitches, enchants, screams, laughs, and always knows how to hurt you.
Italian writer-director Paolo Sorrentino drew widespread praise for his visually striking, complex dramas, which included such festival favorites as “The Family Friend” (2006), “Il Divo” (2008) and “The Great Beauty” (2013). Sorrentino’s work drew comparisons to such legendary filmmakers as Federico Fellini and Michelangelo Antonioni. Paolo Sorrentino’s best work offered arthouse cinema at its most visually and emotionally engaging, as well as the promise of greatness to come.
