About L'eredità di Caino
The film narrates the relationship between the leading character, Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, and four women: Wanda von Dunajev (the Venus in Fur), Anna Klauer (a single prostitute), the Maid (almost a mother figure), and the Contess Aunt Xenobia (the first sexual impulse). Haidée - both the leading character's delirious alter ego and instigator of events - accompanies his host untill he awakens the deepest truth of each one of the characters. Haidée's dream reveals the characters' truths, lies, memories, projections, fears and sufferings in a context which is more emotional than narrative.
Directed by Luca Acito, Sebastiano Montresor, L'eredità di Caino leans on a strong ensemble — Filippo Timi, Cristina Golotta, Anna Mascino — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2005.
