The Return

1h 56m
strong bloody violence, brief nudity
Presumed dead, after 20 years away, Odysseus (Ralph Fiennes) washes up on the shores of Ithaca, haggard and unrecognizable. The King finds much has changed in his kingdom since he left to fight in the Trojan War. His beloved wife Penelope (Juliette Binoche) has become a prisoner in her own home, being hounded to choose a new husband by suitors vying to be king. Their son, Telemachus, faces death at the hands of these suitors, who see him as an obstacle in their pursuit of the kingdom. Odysseus has also changed—scarred by his experience of the Trojan war, he is no longer the mighty warrior from years past— but he must face his past and rediscover his strength in order to save his family and win back all that he has lost.
