Bright, intelligent, passionate and free, Eleanos is Karl Marx’s
young daughter. Among the first women to link the themes of feminism and
socialism, she takes part in the worker’s battles and fights for women’s rights
and the abolition of child labor. In 1883 she meets Edward Aveling and her life
is crushed by a passionate but tragic love story….
"Music was fundamental in contributing to
the tone of the film. As I always do, I made my musical choices while writing
the script, choosing to use for certain situations the music of the Downtown
Boys, a contemporary Marxist punk. Rock band. I thought that this
transgressive band would render the images more powerful, bringing them somehow
out or above time, and adding also an ironic detachment from the most dramatic
events. The Downtown Boys have also reinterpreted the French L’Internationale.
On the other hand, in order to comment romantically and ironically on the more
sentimental parts, I used pieces of classical music, mainly by Chopin but also
Liszt, reinterpreted with modern sounds and arrangements by Gatto Ciliegia
contro il Grande Freddo, the band I’ve always worked with for the musical
scores of my films and whose melancholic atmospheres I am particularly fond
of."
