Pericles, Prince of Tyre

Jack Langedijk

Characters wandering in an apocalyptic setting. Legendary figures. But their desire to defy tragedy is stronger than everything. Pericles, an epic fable in which beings survive fate.

Details

“After shaving the episodic romance to 110 minutes, director Jack Langedijk has transformed it into a vigorously told fairy tale set in a primitive campground (..) Groans and chants and ribald, sophomoric humor figure heavily in this earthy Pericles…” -Marianne Ackerman, The Gazette, Montréal, Québec
