公元4世纪,罗马帝国日渐衰落,在亚历山大港,多神教的智者希帕提娅(蕾切尔·薇姿 Rachel Weisz 饰)为弟子们授课。奥利斯蒂斯(奥斯卡·伊撒克 Oscar Isaac 饰)对她频频示爱,甚至在剧院大胆表白;奴隶达乌斯(麦克思·明格拉 Max Minghella 饰)也对她颇有好感,但因身份卑微无法启口。与此同时,基督教徒宣扬的自由,让达乌斯的信仰开始动摇,此举令他遭受鞭刑,是希帕提娅为他疗伤,抚慰了他的心灵。时局动荡,在多神教的挑动下发生暴乱,基督教转而取得优势,双方在亚历山大图书馆对峙。后来,接到了罗马统治者的号令,让多神教撤出图书馆,允许基督教徒进入,于是一场残酷的浩劫开始了……
本片为第62届戛纳电影节的非竞赛展映片,取景地为马耳他的里卡所里堡,这里曾是《角斗士》和《特洛伊》拍摄地。希帕提娅原定由妮可·基德曼出演,但因其在《黄金罗盘》中饰演反派,遭到基督教徒反感,因此换角。
Kosim became rich after finding gold in the river in the village of Hirupbagja. He soon marries Sumi and lives a prosperous life as a landlord. When their child, Didi, was born, his soul was possessed by Albert Dominique's spirit, which was thirsty for blood and terrorized the villagers. Kosim tries to cover up this fact because he is currently running for the new Village Head. He must be able to beat Soleh, who has already won the sympathy of the villagers. But when the spirit threatens his family's life, Kosim decides to free Didi from the influence of Albert Dominique. To do this, Kosim must confront Dorman, a black sorcerer who wants to avenge his great-grandfather on the people who have destroyed his life.
A heartbroken man returns to the home he shared with his ex-boyfriend, where visceral memories force him to confront the fissures that led to their parting: when the 'casual threesome' they planned evolved into something more.
The movie will feature the family of Mohanlal's character Georgekutty and so they will be reprising their roles. The rest of the cast though will change, and we are sorting out the other aspects including casting right now.
