Directed by Alice Rohrwacher | 2018

With Adriano Tardiolo, Luca Chikovani, Nicoletta Braschi

On an isolated tobacco farm, the cherubic Lazzaro lives in a state of seemingly blissful ignorance, toiling tirelessly under the thumb of a pitiless Marchessa—until suddenly and stunningly, everything changes. Past and present entwine with miraculous results in Italian auteur Alice Rohrwacher’s luminous magical realist fable, a moving parable of class and capitalist exploitation caressed in gorgeous, sun-kissed 16mm.

“I had just completed editing First Cow when I saw Happy As Lazzaro. I felt Lazzaro and [First Cow character] Cookie had a lot in common with each other—from different times and worlds but still spiritually akin to each other. ”

—Kelly Reichardt
