The Gospel According to Matthew

•2h 17m
•Drama
Along a rocky, barren coastline, Jesus begins teaching, primarily using parables. He attracts disciples; he's stern, brusque, and demanding. His parables often take on the powers that be, so he and his teachings come to the attention of the Pharisees, the chief priests, and elders. They conspire to have him arrested, beaten, tried, and crucified, just as he prophesied to his followers.

The Hawks and the Sparrows
A man and his son take an allegorical stroll through life with a talking bird that spouts social and political philosophy.
Arabian Nights
The final part of Pasolini's Trilogy of Life series is rich with exotic tales of slaves and kings, potions, betrayals, demons and, most of all, love and lovemaking in all its myriad forms. Mysterious and liberating, this is an exquisitely dreamlike and adult interpretation of the original folk tales.
Andrey Tarkovsky. A Cinema Prayer
An account of the life and work of Russian filmmaker Andrey Tarkovsky (1932-86) in his own words: his memories, his vision of art and his reflections on the fate of the artist and the meaning of human existence; through extremely rare audio recordings that allow a complete understanding of his inner life and the mysterious world existing behind his complex cinematic imagery.
My Place is Here
Brescia, March 2020. The Spedali Civili, the city's public hospital, suddenly finds itself inundated with patients. In the best tradition of direct cinema, Michele Aiello manages to document a moving slice of life, and to film, at the worst moments of this collective tragedy, the unprecedented reports that unite patients and health personnel in the face of the unknown.
