Vermiglio
Secrets swirl beneath the surface of a remote Italian community in Maura Delpero’s exquisite wartime drama, winner of the Venice Film Festival’s Grand Jury Prize. In a majestic Alpine village touched only faintly by the upheavals of modern life, a strict schoolteacher’s family undergoes a profound shift when a mysterious Sicilian soldier arrives fleeing the front lines of World War II. As the seasons change, the family’s three very different daughters will each find their lives transformed. Blending historically grounded realism with painterly grace, Delpero draws from her own family’s history for an at once intimate and momentous vision of a world suspended between the patriarchal past and the stirrings of a new future.
Janus Contemporaries releases Blu-ray and DVD editions of first-run films, fresh from theaters, in association with the Criterion Channel.
