A TV Dante

A TV Dante is an experimental mini-series directed by Tom Phillips and legendary filmmaker Peter Greenaway. It covers eight of the thirty-four cantos in Dante Alighieri's Inferno, part of his 14th century epic poem The Divine Comedy. The eight cantos of the film are not conventionally dramatised, rather they are illuminated with layered and juxtaposed imagery while the text is read entirely in "talking head" fashion, and punctuated with a kaleidoscopic blend of both newly shot and archival footage.

This production, originally released in 1990, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Miniseries series, it brings a fresh perspective to the Drama genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 7.0 across its 1 season.
