In a retelling of one of the most foundational and ubiquitous narratives of the Western canon, Franco Piavoli reinterprets the skeleton structure of Odysseus’s return to Ithaca, illustrating a man’s isolation, an existential voyage through unforgiving, cacophonous landscapes.

Nostos: il ritorno, 1989, dir. Franco Piavoli, 87min.
