The Eye of the Hen is the cinematic self-portrait of director Antonietta De Lillo, relegated to the margins of the film industry after a legal dispute over the distribution of her most successful film, which could have established her in the mainstream. The story of the protagonist’s public and private life,
through interviews, reconstructions, and personal, cinematographic, and television archives, shows the difficulties of going against the tide and the creativity and resilience needed to reinvent oneself with the means at one’s disposal. The film is a narrative that suggests methods to overcome isolation
isolation by celebrating cinema in its communal, cultural, and political role.
