Elisa: the review of the film with Barbara Ronchi

ANDLisa
Type: Dramatic ✦✦✦ 1/2
Director: Leonardo di Costanzo. With Barbara Ronchi, Roschdy Zem, Diego Ribon, Valeria Golino

Elisa (Ronchi, Magnifica) committed a heinous murder and without apparent explanation. But there is always a reason and, in the model prison where the penalty is serving, a French criminologist takes care of looking for it, proposing to return to that painful and perhaps removed past. A dialogue that leaves no escape and excludes any form of redemption.

Of Costanzo, starting from the essay I wanted to kill her by Adolfo Ceretti and Lorenzo Nataliwhich is inspired by an authentic case, takes one more step in the heart of darkness of the prison: if in Airophermhis 2021 film set in a prison in disposal, the story was that of the unexpected power relationships that are established within those walls, Here the investigation concerns the impossible comparison with his own fault.

Of certain monsters of being in the right the story is full. And the film tells us from the first scene. Seen in competition in Venice.
