Pier Paolo Pasolini's dreamlike rendering of Sophocles' ageless tragedy about a man who unknowingly kills his father and marries his mother. Shifting between stark Moroccan desertscapes and contemporary Bolognian settings, Pasolini incorporates eclectic strains of both Western and Eastern culture into this unique and startling version of a classic tale.
