SUMMARY:Film Screening: La Chimera
DESCRIPTION:Please join the local chapter of the AIA (Archaeological Institute of America) for a screening of the award-winning film\, La Chimera (2023). \nA masterpiece of magical realism\, this independent-film (written and directed by Alice Rohrwacher) will take us on a journey through multiple afterlives… the ancient erupting through the modern. The fable follows a rumpled English archaeologist named Arthur\, and his merry\, wayward crew of tombaroli — who survive by looting ancient-Etruscan tombs. Yet there are larger quests involved. They are at once mythic\, illusory\, and unobtainable\, and they bring into collision the worlds of antiquities-trafficking\, the priceless-priced\, and the search for lost love. \nThere will be an informal reception with popcorn\, cookies\, and non-alcoholic beverages at 5:30pm. The film will begin at 6pm and will be followed by another opportunity to mingle and converse. This event is free and open to the public. Brought to you by the Whitman College History Department.
