Pompei: Below the Clouds

New Release! International Documentary!

From Oscar-nominated documentarian Gianfranco Rosi comes Below the Clouds — a monumental meditation on life lived on the edge of catastrophe. In Naples, beneath the looming threat of Vesuvius and the simmering Campi Flegrei caldera, Rosi finds a people and place suspended between worlds: archaeologists unearthing ancient ruins, firefighters fielding anxious calls, children learning under the hum of distant tremors.

The Union Cinema is on the second floor of the UW-Milwaukee Student Union building.
