IDENTIFICATION OF A WOMAN

After his wife leaves him, a film director finds himself drawn into affairs with two enigmatic women, while at the same time searching for the right subject (and actress) for his next film.

After 1975’s international production with Jack Nicholson, The Passenger, and his experiment in video, The Mystery of Oberwald, Michelangelo Antonioni returns to the kind of film that made him famous, like L’avventura and L’eclisse: the chic dissection of troubled romance in modern Italy.
