TRIBUTES / RETROSPECTIVES: Marco Bellocchio Τhe restless gaze of Μarco Bellocchio

Switzerland-France 1997 6 35mm Color
A two-year-old girl (Marco Bellochio's daughter Elena), discovers her past in a home-movie playing on the living room TV set in her home. She sees herself as a newborn baby, nursing at her mother's breast, being given a bath and sleeping. Her expression is one of surprise, but at the same time she realizes that this is her own, personal story.
