Resilience in Cinema Film Series: Happy as Lazzaro (2018)
Resilience in Cinema: Innocence and optimism as an act of defiance. Filmmaker Diego Ongaro will present a selection of three contemporary films by prominent European directors, each exploring the power of innocence and unyielding hope in the face of adversity.
Join us for the first of the three films in this series, Happy as Lazzaro (2018). Lyrical, haunting, and profoundly moving, Happy as Lazzaro unfolds in an isolated Italian village where a saintly young man’s innocence bridges the realms of the earthly and the mystical. A spellbinding fable from Alice Rohrwacher, it blends neorealist grit with ethereal wonder, evoking a timeless parable of human kindness and exploitation.
The film is 128 minutes long. Please register below.
