The Full Monteverdi

The Full Monteverdi draws more acclaim in South Africa. Paul Boekkooi of Independent News and Media hails the film as “frontier-shifting musical drama”, “a brilliant idea: to show through contemporary everyday 21st-century environments and the latest film techniques, but without any CGI intervention, how Monteverdi’s texts…  can spell out every emotional conflict lovers still feel today” that is “diligently thought through and well-crafted to the hilt.”
