DramaRomanceHistory

Cast

Alexandra Aidini Nikos Poursanidis Giorgos Armenis

Plot

A love story and the Greek history of the twentieth century.

Sinekatalog’s take

Theo Angelopoulos follows a love story through the Greek twentieth century, from the 1919 flight of refugees from Odessa to civil war, in long, sweeping takes. Slow, mournful and gorgeous, the first part of his unfinished trilogy is history as elegy.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
