Pier Paolo Pasolini's Teorema

I don't know why, but I could look at this scene forever...

Teorema. Plot Synopsis: A strange visitor in a wealthy family. He seduces the maid, the son, the mother, the daughter and finally the father before leaving a few days after. After he's gone, none of them can continue living as they did. Who was that visitor?

I agree with barlasha, the visitor is the symbol of some unconditioned love, something when happens it changes your perception of life for ever, like Jesus,Buddha,etc. Pasolini wasn't an atheist, he was a nostalgic christian(he believed in Jesus message but not the church interpretation)

According to Pasolini,the visitor is God,not necesarilly Jesus,but GOD itself,the idea of a banefull,enraged power...That scene is really extraordinary...! It shows ideally the abandonment and isolation....

people misinterpret pasolini here. he was atheist and he was nostalgic. but he was not christian, and he was especially not catholic. he believed that we had lost what peasants once had -- a general notion of immanence as opposed to transcendence. he believed that reality *is* sacred and that's where theists had lost it (and post-industrial man would soon do the same).

[AhadVedux1984]

I agree with "sedream" and NudePanorama". The Visitor (Stamp) is Radiant Unconditional Love expressed in Divine Shock and Awakening though beauty and sex to each.
