Featured review
Self-Paced (MAMI MFF 2023 #17)
La Chimera works on its own pace and it flustered me in the beginning. A man fresh out of prison is on his way back home when he meets with a sudden desire (from others) for him to resume his life like nothing happened. The slow, meandering introduction can play spoilsport to your viewing but if you pay attention, you'll begin to love the film, which is about the stolen artefacts industry in Italy and how a group of pilferers depend on a psychic of sorts to detect tombs filled with such artefacts. I loved the technical bits of La Chimera but it has all the veins of a self-indulgent narrative with flashbacks that are left to the viewer to unfold and understand.
