Mimsy Farmer (Four Flies on Grey Velvet), Maurizio Bonuglia (Ludwig), and Mario Scaccia (We Still Kill the Old Way) lead the cast of The Perfume of the Lady in Black, a surreal giallo thriller directed by Italian polymath Francesco Barilli (Hotel Fear).
Silvia (Farmer) is tormented by hallucinations from her troubled childhood, including her mother applying perfume in a black dress. Her mental state unravels as she struggles to separate her surreal visions from a series of violent occurrences.
Photographed by Palme d’Or-winning cinematographer Mario Masini (Padre Padrone) and scored by Academy Award-winner Nicola Piovani (Life Is Beautiful), The Perfume of the Lady in Black is an eccentric and stylish classic of the Italian giallo.
