Dont miss LEclisse by Director Michelangelo Antonioni Tonight! For more information on tickets and showtimes, visit iffest.ca/ or call 604 685 0260 #IFF #iffest #italian #film #festival #vancity The concluding chapter of Michelangelo Antonioni’s informal trilogy on contemporary malaise (following L’avventura and La notte), L’eclisse tells the story of a young woman (Monica Vitti) who leaves one lover (Francisco Rabal) and drifts into a relationship with another (Alain Delon). Using the architecture of Rome as a backdrop for the doomed affair, Antonioni achieves the apotheosis of his style in this return to the theme that preoccupied him the most: the difficulty of connection in an alienating modern world.
