Film director Mike Hodges introduces the Taviani Brothers' acclaimed masterpiece. Kaos starring
Omero Antonutti
Margarita Lozano
The Taviani brothers' visually stunning Kaos brings to life four of Luigi Pirandello's short stories. Tales of love, sorrow and laughter, shaded by superstition and gentle irony and dominated by the harsh landscapes of Sicily, lead to an imagined episode in the writer's own life.
Pirandello was born in Sicily near the forest of Cavusu, the dialect corruption of the Greek word kaos. 1: The Other Son 2: Moonsickness 3: The Jar 4: Requiem 5: Conversing with Mother
Freely adapted from the short stories of LUIGI PIRANDELLO
