Innovative film director Peter Delpeut (THE FORBIDDEN QUEST) takes footage from early 20th-century films, weaving a new narrative from his discoveries. DIVA DELOROSA finds Delpeut digging out clips from silent Italian films from 1913-1920, splicing them together, and adding a warm orchestral score from composer Loek Dikker. Much of the footage included in DIVA DELOROSA focuses on the dark sexuality of long-forgotten screen sirens from films such as TIGRE REALE, LA DONNA NUDA, and RAPSODIA SATANICA.
