Isabella Rossellini Calls La Chimera Director 'A Completely Original Voice'
Isabella Rossellini explores La Chimera's complex themes while comparing Alice Rohrwacher to her legendary father.
Isabella Rossellini returns to her Italian roots in Alice Rohrwacher's entrancing La Chimera, a film that defies simple categorization with amazing cinematography and complex emotional themes. It follows Arthur (Josh O'Connor), a distraught British archaeologist on a search for his lost love, Beniamina (Yile Vianello), as he loots Etruscan tombs in '80s Tuscany with a band of grave robbers, the tombaroli. Rossellini co-stars as Signora Flora, a wheelchair-using music teacher and Beniamina's mother, who adores Arthur despite his profession.
