MICHELANGELO BUONARROTI, that incomparable Renaissance Man, is masterfully brought back to life by Russian film maestro Andrei Konchalovsky in Sin (Il Peccato), which he co-wrote and directed.
In it, Alberto Testone incarnates Michelangelo in early-16th century Renaissance Italy in Rome, Florence and the quarry where the sculptor connives to snag the world’s largest slab of marble known to man.
Will “the monster,” as this gigantic chunk of snow-white rock is called because of its sheer immensity, be for his Sistine Chapel patron Pope Julius II’s (Massimo De Francovich) tomb or will it be commissioned by the new Pope, Leo X (Simone Toffanin) for the San Lorenzo Basilica?

The story of Laocoön, the Trojan priest who was attacked and killed along with his two sons by giant serpents for attempting to expose the ruse of the Trojan Horse, is well-known in Greek mythology. Laocoön’s tragic tale has been retold by numerous Greek poets such as Apollodorus and Quintus Smyrnaeus. The latter gave a detailed description of Laocoön s grisly fate in his epic poem
Posthomerica. Laocoön was also mentioned by the famous Greek tragedian Sophocles, and by the Roman poet Virgil, whose account is one of the most famous to survive from the Hellenistic period.
