FONISSA (MURDERESS)
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.
THE PROMOTION
It is 2012. Nikos lives in Athens. He is a film director who teaches film direction at the University of Thessaloniki. Today, he will ask his father, Mr. Andrikos, to accompany him to the swearing-in ceremony for his promotion at the University. A father-son train journey ensues, with time running backward.
THE STRANGER'S CASE
Tragedy strikes a Syrian family in Aleppo, starting a chain reaction of events involving five different families in four different countries. Featuring Greek actor Constantine Markoulakis, it highlights the enduring human struggle for empathy and survival.
