2 By Theo Angelopoulos

Bruno Ganz plays a famed Greek author with a growing list of uncompleted projects after becoming despondent following the death of his wife and his own recent terminal diagnosis. Lost in reveries of a brighter past, he’s snapped back to life when, on impulse, he helps an Albanian refugee boy escape a police roundup. As their unexpected friendship grows, ETERNITY AND A DAY offers a profound meditation on the boundaries, real and imagined, between nations, between past and present, between life and death.

(Theo Angelopoulos, France/Italy/Greece, Greek w/ English subs, 137min, 1998, DCP)
