Orlando
Directed by Sally Potter
Produced by Mikado Film, Adventure Pictures
A visually sumptuous, formally playful meditation on gender, identity, and time that spans centuries through the eyes of an immortal, shape-shifting protagonist.
England, 1600. Queen Elizabeth I promises Orlando, a young nobleman obsessed with poetry, that she will grant him land and fortune if he agrees to satisfy a very particular request.
