Rites of Spring / Spomladanski obredi

Yiorgos Tsangaris
2021, CYP, 4'22''

Christian Orthodox tradition and travelling theatre troupes with their pagan roots are two seemingly opposite worlds, both mysterious and both enchanting to the author. Adapted from "An Unfinished Novel" by Kostis Kolotas.

Za krščansko pravoslavno tradicijo in potujoče gledališke skupine poganskih korenin se zdi, da prihajajo iz dveh nasprotujočih si svetov, ki sta za avtorja skrivnostna in čarobna. Film je adaptacija besedila »Nedokončan roman« Kostisa Kolotasa.
