The Return – Preview plus live broadcast Q & A with Ralph Fiennes
Wednesday 9 April, 2025, 6.15 p.m.
A special preview of The Return, starring Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche, directed by Uberto Pasolini.
The screening on 9 April will be followed by a discussion, broadcast live from the British Museum, with Oscar-nominee Ralph Fiennes, British Museum’s Keeper of Greece and Rome, Tom Harrison, and Curator: Reception of the Ancient Mediterranean, Vicky Donnellan.
The Return tells the story of the mythical Greek hero, Odysseus (Fiennes) who, after 20 years away, washes up on the shores of Ithaca, haggard and unrecognisable. The King has returned from the Trojan War, but much has changed in his kingdom. His beloved wife Penelope (Binoche) is a prisoner in her own home, hounded by suitors vying to be king and planning the death of Telemachus, the son he never knew. Shattered by his experience of war, Odysseus must rediscover his strength in order to win back all that he has lost.
