Distributor Note

From acclaimed artist and film maker Alain Robbe-Grillet. An English historian living in Morocco is searching for some mythical lost paintings. His quest leads him into the ancient Arabic quarter of the city. There he sees a beautiful blonde woman in a white veil. He becomes obsessed with finding her, but discovers that she may already be dead. His Moroccan mistress, Belkis, appears to be encouraging his obsessions, but it soon transpires that she may be trapping him in a dark and dangerous labyrinth of desire, from which death may be the only escape. This was the last work from the acclaimed and award winning film maker and is an exotic, erotic mystery story which deals with some of the most profound issues of the human heart. Packed with controversial and astonishing imagery, it's an intriguing and complex work of art that is a fitting tribute to a master of world cinema.

Product Notes

AMG, Novelist-filmmaker Alain Robbe-Grillet's supernatural drama GRADIVA (aka IT'S GRADIVA THAT IS CALLING YOU concerns John Locke (James Wilby), an art historian immersed in Asian research on the Marrakeshi casbah and accompanied by Belkis, his servant and mistress. Amid his studies of Eugene Delacroix, Locke repeatedly encounters a lithe, ethereal female presence in the city's Arabic quarter who draws him seductively through the city's maze-like streets but repeatedly vanishes. He then encounters Anatoli, a self-professed antique dealer and curator of Oriental artifacts itching for a challenge. Belkis persuades Locke to keep his distance from these individuals, but Locke blatantly ignores her admonitions and forges ahead--never quite realizing that the spirits are toying with him and drawing him into a dead-end psychosexual black hole.
