Two disparate worlds come together in thoroughly unexpected ways in this intriguing film directed by Academy Award winner Bernardo Bertolucci. The story builds almost imperceptibly, with an accumulation of details, striking visual imagery, and a haunting soundtrack, in which classical piano, African music, and silence are all used to powerful effect. A tantalizing erotic undercurrent bubbles to the surface as the narrative takes the story in directions both unpredictable and captivating.
IMDB
Synopsis: Set in the contrasting climates of a politically-charged Africa and the tranquil confines of an enchanting Roman villa, Besieged is a smoldering love story that bridges the gap between two very different worlds. Thandie Newton stars as the luminous Shandurai, a young African woman who has left her homeland, after having witnessed her husband's brutal abduction at the hands of an oppressive government. Disenchanted with her country, Shandurai surfaces in Rome at the home of an eccentric English musician, Mr. Kinsky (David Thewlis). Shandurai works as a maid for Mr. Kinsky in exchange for room and board while she studies medicine at the local university. The two have almost nothing in common, yet she hopelessly enchants him. The depth of his devotion will challenge the delicate balance between desire and sacrifice, sentimentalism and need, as old and new worlds meet and meld in this daring and inventive story.
L'assedio

Shandurai è una giovane africana che vive a Roma studiando medicina e guadagnandosi da vivere facendo la colf a un compositore inglese, Kinsky. La donna ha lasciato nel proprio Paese il marito, che è stato arrestato per motivi politici da un regime dittatoriale. Nel momento in cui il musicista le dichiara il suo amore lei gli rivela la sua situazione e l'uomo si spoglia, progressivamente e di nascosto, dei propri averi per far uscire dal carcere il condannato. Quando Shandurai comprende l'accaduto non può non amare Kinsky. Il mattino dopo suo marito suonerà alla porta. Passato provvidenzialmente dallo status di produzione televisiva a quello di cinema tout court, L'assedio è un piccolo gioiello. ( continua a leggere)

Молодая африканка по имени Шандурай после ареста мужа-учителя перебирается в Европу. В «вечном городе» Риме она находит пристанище в доме мистера Кински – странного английского пианиста. В качестве платы за предоставленное жилье Шандурай работает в его доме служанкой, а параллельно пытается выучиться на врача.
Несмотря на то, что Кински целиком поглощен музыкой и общается преимущественно с Бахом, Моцартом и Григом, между ним и темнокожей девушкой начинают складываться довольно необычные отношения.(подробнее)
