ANGEL
1982 / Color / 126’ / screened on DCP in Greek with English & Turkish subs.
6 FRIDAY 13:00 - 15:30
Angel is a young gay man living very discreetly in an unfriendly and barren social milieu. The time comes for him to fall in love. Michael is an experienced and able “professional” who invites him to live and have an affair with him. Angel has nothing to lose by deserting his family home: an alcoholic father, a hysterical mother worn out by work and a disabled sister. The film's aim is to focus the spectators' attention on situations that exist beyond the police records, harshly illuminating the dark sides and the social discrimination in Greek society. It also provides a wider gaze on the problem of solitude and of freedom in modern society.
