Synopsis

A handsome and enigmatic stranger arrives at an upstanding wealthy household in Milan and successively seduces the son, the mother, the daughter, the father, and the maid. Each individual experiences some sort of revelation or epiphany. Then, as abruptly and mysteriously as he arrived, he departs.

MUBI's take

One of the most brilliant, radical thinkers—and, of course, filmmakers—of the 20th century, Pier Paolo Pasolini outdid himself with this enigmatic allegory. A meditation on Italy’s transformation from spirituality to consumerism, Theorem remains one of the most relevant critiques of modern life.
