The urban space as a place to live.-The urban space as a place to observe.The city of Athens as a protagonist, a man walking alone through a city with no life,with no time. An objective observation of the city through an odd promenade.
I. and F. are wandering. They walk. They stop. They talk. They are lost. They remember. They forget. They reappear. They continue. They pass mountains, fields and villages, meet friends, but also strangers. They go on, walking, stopping, talking, disappearing, remembering, forgetting, reappearing. This is their story, through the landscape, the road and the stories of others.

1978, on his birthday, Stavros was set to get engaged to Matula. Instead, he was forced to embark on his first big journey. 2020, on his birthday, Stavros wanders around the city alone.

The island of Zakynthos is situated in the frontiers of Greece and the rest of Europe and very close to Italy with witch Zakynthos had very particular relations. That transformed it's culture, traditions and customs in to a particular way (along with the other Ionian Islands). This particularity surprises the visitor who comes in the island for the first time, especially if he is a Greek one. This is exactly what has happen to me too and so I decided to depict that surprise in a short documentary in the form of video art.
An otherworldly white landscape, a road strewn with bones, and a secret that everyone knows yet tries to conceal. A story of a society sinking into moral emptiness.
