About
You can watch Malena (2000) on Hoopla with a participating library card, rent on Apple TV+, or buy on Apple TV+.
12-year-old Renato experiences three significant events on the same day: the beginning of the Second World War, getting a bike, and witnessing the arrival of the gorgeous Malèna. Through his eyes, we see the curse of beauty and loneliness of Malena, whose husband is presumed dead, and, through his soul, we see his love for her.
A luminous, devastating presence commands the screen as a woman becomes the target of a small town's collective gaze. Through the eyes of a burgeoning adolescent, this Sicilian tragedy captures how obsession and war can strip away a person's dignity.
