Purgatorio 2008

Dante's 'La Divina Commedia' is a poem in three parts about a journey to hell, purgatory and finally, paradise. Romeo Castellucci created his own free adaptation of Purgatorio on the scene of Chateaublanc in Avignon (France). A mother, a father and their son live in a bourgois appartment where a terrible drama is suggested. The use of hors-champ and sound is wo,nderful as usual with Italian director Castellucci. Written texts appear as subtitles of a movie even if this is pure theater...
