Reconstruction

Theodoros Angelopoulos19701h 50mCrime, Drama

Why we chose it

Truth and its perpetually elusive nature goes under the microscope of Theo Angelopoulos, who demonstrates from the very outset that he was already a fully formed filmmaker. The result is a multidimensional, semantically lucid work, unlike anything else in his body of work.

Synopsis

An immigrant returns to his village after many years, only to find that no one is waiting for him. When his wife and her lover murder him, an investigator attempts to reconstruct the crime, while a film crew documents the event.
