Having recently returned to her native Italy after living in Switzerland for 10 years, quiet but curious 13-year-old Marta is left to her own devices while her loving but worn-out mother toils away at an industrial bakery. Marta's only source of socialization is the local church, where she is told to attend preparatory classes for her confirmation. But the doctrines of Roman Catholicism offer little in terms of life lessons or consolation, and she quickly sees through the hypocrisy of the priest, who cares more about status than about his constituents. Eventually, Marta forges her very own way of the cross, which turns out to have much less to do with God than with her own climb towards adulthood. -- (C) Film Movement

Movie Overview For Corpo Celeste
After growing up in Switzerland, 13-year-old Marta returns to a city in southern Italy with her mother and older sister. Independent and inquisitive, she joins a catechism class at a local church. However, the games and religious pop songs she encounters there do not nearly satisfy her interest in faith. Struggling to find her place, Marta pushes the boundaries of the class, the priest, and the church.

Review For Corpo Celeste

For those willing to overlook its few slips into heavy-handedness, "Corpo Celeste" tells a compelling story of a 12-year-old girl thrust into a strange new world.
Walter V. Addiego-San Francisco Chronicle

"Corpo Celeste" often stumbles, along with its 12-year-old heroine, Marta (Yle Vianello).
Rachel Saltz-New York Times

Alice Rohrwacher's debut fictional feature is an uncommonly insightful portrait of nascent womanhood, assisted in no small measure by Vianello's disarmingly naturalistic performance.
Eric Hynes-Time Out New York

Corpo Celeste would be a treat in any season, but it's particularly refreshing amid the summer-movie bombast.
Mark Holcomb-Village Voice

Vianello gives a lovely, unforced performance as Marta, who begins to see that the blue-eyed, open-armed fuzzy Jesus she's being sold is a fake.
Cath Clarke-Time Out

Minor tonal inconsistencies are overcome by this intimate tale's naturalistic thesping and loose lensing style.
Boyd van Hoeij-Variety

Though at times heavy-handed in its imagery and slow-paced, Rohrwacher's debut feature is remarkably unadorned and touching, putting forth a realistic portrait of modern Italy at a time when the country faces economic hardship as well as cultural changes.
Meredith Slifkin-Film Comment Magazine

A heavenly coming-of-age film.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews

There are moments that suggest the director might do something better next time.
Philip French-Observer [UK]

An accomplished debut.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]

Neither lights a fuse to our brains or hearts.
Nigel Andrews-Financial Times

Quietly compelling, the cerebral slice of social realism is well worth hunting down.
David Parkinson-Empire Magazine

The film makes neat if familiar associations between Catholic ritual and sexual identity, and between religion and civic corruption.
Hannah McGill-The List

Corpo Celeste's acute sense of place, feel for adolescent confusion and miraculous resolution suggest that Rohrwacher is a talent to watch.
Tom Dawson-Total Film

Rich, heady filmmaking that employs small strokes on a huge canvas.
Sherwyn Spencer-Little White Lies

Alice Rohrwacher's debut feature exhibits the sort of mannerisms a certain stripe of cinephile tends to dread, on or off the festival circuit.
Jaime N. Christley-Slant Magazine

Grittily real but somehow dreamlike at the same time, coming of age tale Corpo Celeste is a quietly impressive feature debut for documentary maker Alice Rohrwacher.
Lee Marshall-Screen International
