Giuditta

2025 · 164 min

A lush, slow operatic reverie where a mysterious woman's songs halt time and every admirer learns he cannot possess her.

Overview: Time stands still whenever Giuditta starts to sing. Regarded as a bird of paradise, many a man has tried to enclose her in a golden cage and trap her in chains of diamonds disguised as necklaces. To no avail: the beautiful Giuditta is as protective of her freedom as her secrets. No one truly knows from whence she came, not the bird-catcher who one day found her on the shore and married her no questions asked, or the handsome Captain Octavio with whom she ran away to North Africa…
How it feels: Romantic, melancholic, earnest and tense. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Freedom, identity, love, obsession
Content: Mild violence and sexual content. No gore or swearing.
