F GR “SEASON IN HELL” – Elias Malandris, Greece, 2022, 88’

Synopsis: The enduring mark left on world poetry by Arthur Rimbaud during his brief life, as well as the fascinating and adventurous existence he led — driven by his reckless, untamed, and rebellious nature — have inspired countless writers, filmmakers, and theatre artists. Equally compelling has been his explosive relationship with the already celebrated poet Paul Verlaine.

For the very first time, however, their tragic journey is presented through the authenticity of their own words, without any adaptation or intervention in the text, exactly as it was forever preserved in their correspondence.
