"The most dreamlike part of Pasolini’s triptych of classic tragedy. Shot in Cappadocia, which, represents mythical Colchis, the film adapts Euripides family tragedy of betrayal and revenge and sets a canvas around the “sacred” almost silent presence of Maria Callas, who had already given a famous performance in the title role of Cheroubini’s Medea”.
