The Bleeding Statues
Writer
Três presos de uma prisão escapam e apreendem o museu arqueológico de uma cidade da província pouco antes de sua inauguração oficial, ameaçando destruir as estátuas se suas demandas não forem atendidas. O museu está cercado pela polícia e um fim violento parece inevitável. Somente o curador do museu compartilha a angústia dos condenados em fuga (e também está naturalmente preocupado com o destino das estátuas). As pessoas da cidade, no entanto, são completamente alheias e indiferentes aos eventos que ocorrem.
The Girl with Golden Hair
Screenplay
Antonis Katsaris stars as a teacher in the small village of Zante who fights the growing desire of many locals to abandon the village for the big city or other countries. He works hard to organize traditional cultural events, such as outdoor performances of the traditional play I Chrissomalloussa, in order to solidify local values and a sense of identity. The teacher is aided by a young woman, a widow who has just returned from Germany and lives with her father-in-law. Kazan walks away with the film, as his sinister desires for his daughter-in-law are inflamed when he sees that she has fallen in love with the teacher. These developments lead him to whip up protests against the play by conservative locals, claiming that the teacher has changed the traditional story by adding elements of propaganda with the potential of causing peasant uprisings. The result is an unexpectedly violent example of social censorship.
