The film tells the tale of the apparently immortal Orlando, who begins an epic quest for love and freedom in the court of Elizabeth I as a man and completes the search 400 years later as a woman.

Tilda Swinton leads an outstanding international cast in this enchanting, witty, visually stunning and brilliantly original story of self-discovery, romance and adventure.

Tilda Swinton, Billy Zane and Quentin Crisp star in this "hip, sexy, and wickedly fully" film based on the gender-bending novel by Virginia Woolf.

Swinto stars as Orlando, an English nobleman who defies the laws of nature with surprising results. Immortal and highly imaginative, he undergoes a series of extraordinary transformations which humorously and hauntingly illustrate the eternal war between the sexes.

visually stunning and beautifully acted, ORLANDO is an intoxicating blend of romance, adventure and illusion. "It's perfect...See it." (Ella Taylor, The Atlantic Monthly)
