A BIT ABOUT THE FILM:
Lech Majewski | UK/Italy | 2004
| rated M
Majewski’s adaption of his own novel, Metaphysics, follows the doomed romance of art historian Claudine Spiteri and nautical engineer Chris Nightingale. The handheld camera captures the arresting beauty of Venice and refracts Claudine’s obsession with the mortal pleasures of Bosch’s painting, “The Garden of Earthly Delights”. A Venice film for the connoisseur: elegant, erotic and steeped in the mysterious beauty of the city. “A luminous, highly erotic treatise on art, love and death.”– Chicago Reader
