The new "Third Kind"
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.
