Barren

Beautifully acted, and at times disturbing, the film raises fundamental questions about religion and faith, presenting a complex view of the insular community where the difference between good and bad is not always clear cut.

Alla Vita

[vc_row][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_column_text css_animation="none" css=""] 9 November 2024 7:00pm [su_spacer size="10"] Drama [su_button url="#" target="blank" style="flat" radius="0" background="#fa0f0c" color="#FFFFFF" size="6"]Tickets[/su_button]   [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=""] SYNOPSIS: The story of a young French ultra-Orthodox woman and a divorced Italian farmer who both long to break free. Even though she is deeply unhappy and desperate to leave the faith, Esther has accompanied her father on their annual trip to Southern Italy to harvest etrogim kosher lemons for the religious holiday of Sukkot. Elio, the non-Jewish owner of the farm, is grateful for their visit as it helps the farm financially. Alla Vita is a film that understands the power of subtlety. It isn't flashy or melodramatic, nor is it interested in undermining those who choose to live a life of devout faith. Instead, it's much more driven by its characters' desire for a life that is truly meant for them.
