Seven years after Gomorra, and three years after Reality, winners of the Grand Prix du Jury in 2008 and in 2012, the director brings us Il Racconto dei Racconti (Tale of Tales), inspired by the Pentameron, a collection of 17th century fables inhabited by sea monsters, giants bats and fleas, marvelous castles and mazes. Anything but bland, the tales are often savagely realistic and sprinkled with a fair dose of cruelty.
