Digger

"Digger" is a Drama movie in which we watch a young man returning to his hometown and see his father after many years. They both have to find the correct way to communicate after so many years apart.

I liked this movie very much because despite its simple plot it was interesting. The direction which was made by Georgis Grigorakis was very good and he presented very well both his main characters and their relationship. In addition to this, he succeeded on presenting in a very clever way some of the most important subjects of our times, such as climate change and deforestation. The interpretations of Argyris Pandazaras who played as Johnny, Vangelis Mourikis who played as Nikitas and Sofia Kokkali who played as Mary were very good. Finally, I have to say that "Digger" is a nice drama movie and I highly recommend everyone to watch it.

Amazing job! Great dialogues in a retro futuristic Hellenic western drama. The storyboard is very realistic with an unsolved situation between a father and son in the Hellenic Forest. Grigorakis got so much potential in his directing skills. Mourikis is proving that he is still the best Hellenic cinema actor throughout the ages. The other actors like Pantzaras and Iatropoulos doing great too. Worth seing it.7 out of 10.

It is a moving and multidimensional film with deep social and political messages. It focuses not only on the broken father-son relationship and how it is evolving, but also raises critical political issues, such us the change in the local economy due to the arrival of a large company and the impact it has, not only on the lives of local producers struggling to handle, but also in the relations between the inhabitants.

The issues raised of this film are so realistic that it's really worth seeing and thinking about. It is one of the best Greek movies I have ever seen.

Grounded, witty, realistic, with excellent photography. A true story with true people as protagonists, Greece contemporanity, its distorted modernity filmed with sensitivity and humor. Sound scriptplay, gorgeous landscapes, exvellent performances, Mourikis at his best.

With a form of modern western, the director builds a confrontation with the progress as a destructive element, which is also defined in the relationship of the bohemian father and the son, full of reproaches. With an exceptional cinematography that shows the greatness of the landscape as well as the intimacy of the people, the film works in contrast, in the harshness of the forest and its inhabitants.
