The Divine Way

 15 Minutes / Experimental /Colour, 4k, HD 1.85:1 / Stereo, 5.1/ Germany 2018

Written, Produced & Directed by Ilaria Di Carlo

Synopsis 

Loosely based on Dante’s Divine Comedy, The Divine Way takes us along on the protagonist’s epic descent through an endless labyrinth of staircases.  As the woman journeys deeper, the staircases mutate and she is trapped and pulled into their dangerous landscape, conducting us through more than fifty magnificent locations.
