Il Grido

Witness a new 4k restoration of Il Grido, Michelangelo Antonioni’s 1957 road drama.

The film follows Aldo (Steve Cochran), a factory worker who embarks on a desolate journey after his long-term lover, Irma (Alida Valli), ends their relationship upon discovering her feelings for another man. Taking their young daughter, Rosina, with him, Aldo drifts aimlessly through the rural Po Valley, encountering various women who offer fleeting solace but fail to alleviate his profound sense of emptiness. As he struggles to reconcile his inner turmoil with the changing social landscape around him, Aldo’s journey becomes a poignant meditation on love, loss, and the human condition.
