A mind-bending portrait of an orphan’s adolescence in a gritty medieval village life, this revelatory 1975 feature evokes the mystic expressionism and baroque delirium of Parajanov and Dovshenko.
This film is part of the Once Upon a Time in the Middle East series in conjunction with the exhbition Gifts of the Sultan currently on view at LACMA.
