After a decade-long hiatus, acclaimed filmmaker Coppola returns with this romantic drama, based on a novella by Romanian writer Mircea Eliade. An academic, Dominic, embarks on a spiritual journey after being struck by lightning and regaining his youth in the body of a thirty-year-old. Realising late in his life that he has a new opportunity to complete his masterwork, the film tackles questions as heady as the connection between language and consciousness and the meaning of life through Dominic’s research. A typical Coppola film: Complex, infuriating, and thought-provoking. |
