Picture

Co-presented with The Melbourne Cinémathèque


A surprisingly bawdy adaptation of a tale from Boccaccio’s Decameron, a story of a philandering monk and a beautiful but dull lady who will surrender only to archangel Gabriel.

The Archangel Gabriel and Mrs. Goose will screen on 35mm, courtesy of Národní filmový archiv.

Screening Saturday, May 25, 12.30pm, at ACMI Cinemas, recommended for ages 8+
