Third Kind sets up its dystopia in a mature and nuanced way. It deserves praise for its successful production design, visuals and masterful direction. It takes us along the depths of its world, and gives us a satisfying realm for contemplation.

Third Kind features immaculate compositions of a lonely world as three archaeologists explore the desolate Earth looking for the source of mysterious signal. The short features a perfect marriage of evocative sound design and distant visuals to evoke a feeling of breadth. The story unveils itself slowly in the details of the film as the scientists slowly move along on their journey. Time is of no consequence here, every detail more important than the last, and coalesces into a poignant moment of self-reflection. The piece sheds a light on the state of humanity through the lack of humanity. Beautiful.

Highly recommend. This is what indie film should strive for. Tension, interest, technique...

The director Yorgos Zois was very successful in choosing the filming sites for each scene, as they really elaborated the meaning behind the story. The film touches on the bitter reality of humanity, in such a wonderful way that makes it certainly one of the most truest films as of late.

Three archeologists from the future return to earth to investigate the source of a mysterious signal. For the viewer this reveals to be a journey to the present. A beautiful and neat cinematography and a finely crafted sound design create a meditative pace which accompany us through the abandoned labyrinths of our own society.

Of course "Third Kind" by Yorgos Zois refers to Steven Spielberg's "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", on the same time to Stanley Kublick's "2001 - A Space Odyssey". But the dimension, which configures in Spielberg's and even more in Kubrick's works the confrontation with a mysterious intelligence, an evidently superior culture - Kublick's monolith stone as the incarnation of the unknown - now in Zios' short film is replaced by the figure of a lost emigrant, last representative of a likewise lost culture, which still communicate with superior forces (the stadium). Yorgos Zois creates a sublime comment on migration in a surprising perspective: a definitely lost of cultures.
