A retired professor lives alone in luxurious Rome apartment, withdrawn from the world and accompanied only by his art. His seemingly peaceful existence is shattered when he’s convinced to rent out space to a group of young lodgers.
Approaching 70, the great Luchino Visconti reunited with Burt Lancaster, the star of his Palme d’Or winner The Leopard, to offer this wry and exquisite chamber piece. One of cinema’s irreplaceable masters contemplates a new world in this modestly scaled yet conceptually rich drama.
