This hypnotic psychological thriller follows a suppressed bureaucrat, chillingly portrayed by Jean-Louis Trintignant, who becomes entangled in the fascist machine of 1930s Italy and is tasked with assassinating his former professor.
With the masterful cinematography of Vittorio Storaro (Apocalypse Now) and Bertolucci’s elegant, expressionistic direction, Il Conformista is a stunning study in style and subtext, exploring themes of power, oppression, and the seductive allure of conformity. The work has inspired generations of filmmakers, from Coppola to Scorsese, and remains a defining icon of European film history. Experience the political urgency and visual splendor of this classic, now fully restored in 4K by the Cineteca di Bologna.
