La Chimera

Just out of jail and still searching for his late beloved Beniamina, crumpled English archaeologist Arthur reconnects with his wayward crew of accomplices – a happy-go-lucky collective of itinerant grave-robbers who survive by looting Etruscan tombs and fencing the ancient treasures they dig up. Arthur isn’t interested in the artefacts, though; he’s seeking a legendary door to the underworld, and to Beniamina. Josh O’Connor channels 1970s Elliott Gould in this dreamlike jewel of a film.

All tickets for screenings of La Chimera on Fri 10 May are 2-for-1 for under 25s.
