As much as it was a country in the midst of industrialization, Romania still offered glimpses of the ancient, wild world that Pasolini wanted to portray. The director left with only a collection of music, which was used almost entirely as the soundtrack for the film that was ultimately shot in Morocco. Oedipus Redux is a speculative exploration of locations that invites viewers to contemplate a "what if" within cinematic history. A series of vignettes inter cut with images from the film constitute an invitation to a spectral journey, a cinematic rite of passage between a nebulous, mythical past and a hyper real present.
