What's it about

In a climate of full countercultural effervescence, Liliana Cavani imagined a totalitarian Milan where picking up the corpses in the streets is forbidden. Britt Ekland portrays a contemporary Antigone, determined to bury her dead brother during a protest. Tiresias accompanies her on a challenge that will turn both of them into beacons for a youth that is gradually recovering the will to fight. Presented at the Cannes Directors' Fortnight and with music by Ennio Morricone, Los caníbales transfers the tragedy of Sophocles to a powerful political dystopia whose force remains intact.
