Leoforos Patision

I am Greek and I am so tired of all these "social-sensitive" directors who think that they can throw a refugee here a homeless person there and top it all off with clashes with riot police and have a movie. As a person who has felt the consequences of the greek crisis I feel cheated when our collective struggle is being used as an excuse to make a name for your self as a politically conscious artist. FYI most of these directors are not even involved in any short of political activity and are privileged to able to do this kind of movies. (I wouldn't really mind about that last one if those movies were honest). Anyway the film excibits some good technic with the building of tension and the innovative camera angle but overall I find its use of social issues shallow and vulgar.

A special film for the wise construction of tension. A long, long walk in the centre of Athenes, fragments of dialogue, care for a professional unique opportunity and about the children , street fights as echo of the mixed emotions of the mother and the fair end. A short film like an impecable embroidery . And admirable portrait of motherhood .
