Enas allos kosmos

One can see clearly negative reviews are by fascists and nationalists portrayed in this movie. Yes the migration problem was over exaggerated, but still a fantastic movie.

I felt quite heavy watching the movie. I don't understand politics, in fact everything about Greece is Greek to me as of today. The story reminded me of "A boy in stripped pajamas" reinforcing my belief that almost always some one innocent has to pay for the wrong deeds of not so innocent. And all such acts against innocent people get registered in the vibrations of the universe - whether being done rightfully or wrongfully. No wrong that is done persistently to a weaker group/ person and stays hidden from the eyes of the public (that can correct that wrong), is not given back to the universe- it always returns to the universe. That simple truth was very stressed in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We cannot justify wrongs to the innocent but usually that is the way for many to behave and for universal vibrations to respond. The movie "A Boy In Stripped Pajamas" had shaken me after I had completed the movie. "Worlds Apart" movie not so much but I liked the love stories.

In a time when Greece is having some serious struggles comes three stories of people who are making romantic connections and their connections are effected by the struggle.

Some are good some are long lasting but not met to be and it would not be Greek it they didn't have a tragedy.

Thankfully JK Simmons was in this movie or I would not be able to pronounce anyone's name in this.

Funny romantic and very dramatic as the Greeks discuss the politics of what's going on in the country today while still trying to find love. Sounds very Greek, right? It was a very good movie.

I'm no fan of love stories but I am interested in both Greece and Europe's refugee problem and this film is as much about those as they are about love. As a DVD it seemed a choice that my wife would probably enjoy, and I was right, she loved it and so did I. It's about youth, people at the height of their careers, and love in the twilight years. Surprisingly I related strongly to all three stories which run seamlessly one into another. They're all acted beautifully with J K Simmons left as a sort of dessert with Maria Kavoyianni as the cherry.

The director, Christopher Papakaliatis, who apparently also wrote the script, deserves a real budget and a shot at the best suitable script that comes along. The evidence is abundant in this movie but the best example of it is a dressing down that happens near the end of the movie, it's wonderful.

To think of all the grief that's rained down on Greece thanks to the refugee crisis, and then to watch this compassionate Greek take on the problem makes the US response look positively juvenile.

I watched it yesterday and I kept my expectations rather high, because the main theme of the movie and the way it shapes politics concerns me in a direct manner. It was even better than I expected it. The script is extremely interesting, especially if you like movies that have to do with the society and politics. I daresay it depicted my country, Greece, as it is in reality. With both its breathtaking beauty and its ugliness. What mostly enthralled me though, was the directing and the photography. On the whole, it was a movie that captivated you frame by frame. The acting was another surprise, although it should not have been, with such an impressive casting. Niki Vakali and Tawfeek Barhom were two names, which I am going to remember and watch over from right on. Andrea Osvart was pleasantly fitting to her role, like it was written for her. JK Simmons and Maria Kavogianni amazed me with the natural innocence of their romance. There was chemistry and simultaneously their acting was enviable. And, lastly, Christopher Papakaliatis has to be congratulated, because he did not only direct and write the film, but he also gave a fairly good performance.
