1978 film by Patrice Chéreau

Although he is in his thirties, Orlando still feels like a child. He is terrified of the outside world and is stuck in an obsessive relationship with his mother.

Two narrators, one seen and one unseen, discuss possible connections between a series of paintings. The on-screen narrator walks through three-dimensional reproductions of each painting, featuring real people, sometimes moving, in an effort to explain the series' significance.
