Newly released from prison, an Englishman (Josh O’Connor) returns to his lost love’s town in rural Tuscany, only to get caught up with a ragtag band of tomb raiders plundering ancient Etruscan graves in search of valuable relics. Hailed as “wondrous” and “pure magic” by the Associated Press News, La Chimera is a dreamy, magical realist meditation on the ways the past haunts the present.
