Dekapentavgoustos

A splendid film about ordinary existence. Crisis, hopes, searches and dreams, in a subtle mixture with a special flavor of Christianism. Delicate exploration of a small world and art to discover each detail of a common struggle. Symbols, signs and metaphors, breaths of crisis, shadows of ages and the trip to essential miracle. Images from Bergman and great expectation.

A very Greek movie with universal message. For everybody it is important a "Dekapendavgoustos", day of escape and confrontation with interior demons. Day of introspection of entire life and building of a reasonable answer. The day of past's lost. Day of fight with the Angel and talk with God on Sinai mount.

Tho characters defines the reality of film: The Mother of God and the young thief- strange epheb and ambiguous messenger of basic values. The projection of this two presences is the Morfoula's search of her daughter and the intensity of her pray.

Few people and an only purpose. Slices of life in an August day.
