Biopic, Historical - Original version - by Pietro Marcello - Italy - 2h02

At the end of World War I, as Italy buries its unknown soldier, the great Eleonora Duse reaches the end of a legendary career. But despite her age and fragile health, the woman many consider to be the greatest actress of her time decides to return to the stage. Her daughter's recriminations, her complex relationship with the great poet D'Annunzio, the rise of fascism, and Mussolini's rise to power—nothing would stop Duse, “the divine.”
