Alice Rohrwacher, Josh O’Connor, and Isabella Rossellini sat down with NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim after the NYFF61 premiere of their Main Slate selection La Chimera to discuss archaeology, mutual admiration, and a new generation of Italian filmmaking.
With her customarily bewitching mixture of earthiness and magical realism, Alice Rohrwacher (Happy as Lazzaro) conjures a marvelous entertainment starring Josh O’Connor as a ne’er-do well Englishman, handsomely rumpled and recently out of prison, who returns to a rural town in central Italy where he hesitantly reconnects with a ragtag group of tombaroli (tomb raiders).

I love what Isabella said about the choir because I noticed that in the scene, it was like singing – different notes in that scene.
Love Rohrwacher's world.
oh brother you have also heard Alice's call through her films, and it continues to mark you for days, weeks, months; is this a common story?
