The first film of the important trilogy "Odes to Existence" by Stavros Psyllakis. Starting from childhood and youth memories, experiences and concerns, we follow the author's titanic existential struggle, in a highly penetrating portrait that escapes the narrow biographical boundaries.
Synopsis
Giorgos Maniatis (1939-2018), legionnaire in Algeria at the age of 18, writer and musician afterwards, defines himself as a "public danger". The film seeks the adventure of his soul, a consciousness on constant alert, incendiary and self-immolating.
