The Return

The English Patient stars Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche reunite in this adaptation of Homer’s Odyssey that sees Fiennes’ Odysseus return to a very different kingdom from the one he left. 20 years after he went to fight in the Trojan War, Odysseus (Ralph Fiennes) washes back up on the shores of Ithaca. The decades have taken their toll, but his wife Penelope (Juliette Binoche) has kept the faith as she waits, fending off suitors, while she and their son Telemachus (Charlie Plummer) are constantly under threat. Uberto Pasolini’s gripping drama leaves mythological creatures aside to dig into the psychological underpinnings of Homer’s epic, fuelled by the spellbinding performances of Fiennes and Binoche. Screening as part of Official Selection The screening on 9 March will be followed by a Q&A with Uberto Pasolini (director). View all GFF25 Q&A Screenings here.
