“It is only at our moment of death that our life, to that point undecipherable, ambiguous, suspended, acquires a meaning.” So said the filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini in a 1967 interview. The idea that death defines a person has seldom been more vividly illustrated than in the case of Pasolini, whose extraordinary life and work are invariably seen through the prism of his gruesome end.
