Cinema Paradiso
1988
Trailer narrates the elaborate fiction of a young man—perplexingly named Alfgar Dalio--who unexpectedly discovers the story of his birth parents while visiting a rundown movie theater in Ohio. In the movie "trailer," he hears the bizarre tale of two long-lost cinema stars stranded by plane wreck in the jungle, and realizes he shares a name with an obscure, now-extinct Amazonian moth. Intuiting that this link holds the key to his origins, Alfgar must navigate a slippery, revelatory, and almost magical realism in which his own truth is both excavated and explored.
