The Mill and the Cross

What would it be like to step inside a great work of art, have it come alive around you, and even observe the artist as he sketches the very reality you are experiencing?

From acclaimed Polish filmmaker Lech Majewski, The Mill & the Cross is a cinematic re-staging of Pieter Bruegel's masterpiece "Way to Calvary," presented alongside the story of its creation - with Rutger Hauer as Bruegel, Michael York as his patron, and Charlotte Rampling as the inspiration for his Virgin Mary.

"LUSH AND HYPNOTIC! AN INSPIRING, ALLURING MEDITATION about imagery and storytelling, the common coin of history, religion and art...has ambitions as sweeping as the vast canvas that Bruegel fills." - Daniel M. Gold, The New York Times

"FOUR STARS. A dazzling master class in visual composition." - Eric Hynes, Time Out (New York)
