Murderess (Fonissa) – Edmonton
Metro Cinema, 8712 109 St NW, Edmonton, AB T6G 1E9, Canada
Description
Murderess (Fonissa)
Set against the hauntingly beautiful backdrop of a remote Greek island around 1900, “Fonissa” (Murderess) unravels a powerful drama that dives deep into the human psyche and societal norms.
This gripping tale is based on Alexandros Papadiamantis’s classic novel, bringing to life the harrowing story of Hadoula, a woman entangled in the oppressive webs of a patriarchal society.
Hadoula’s life has been shaped by rejection and struggle, starting with her own mother. Living in a world that dictates a woman’s worth by rigid, patriarchal standards, Hadoula’s internal rebellion simmers until it can no longer be contained.
In a desperate bid for control and a twisted sense of justice, she turns to murder, targeting the little girls of her island community.
Cicada (Short film)
After losing his wife, Papou reconciles with a changed sense of belonging as he returns to his home village without her.
