SYNOPSIS
Yunanistan sinemasının usta isimlerinden Takis Kanellopoulos’un ilk filmi de olan “Makedon Düğünü,” Batı Makedonya’daki Velvedo adlı bir köyün geleneklerini ve bir düğünün hazırlıklarını izliyor. Etnografik sinemanın ilk önemli örneklerinden olan filmde Kanellopoulos’un şiirsel bakışı, kökleri çok uzun zaman öncede kalmış, kaybolan bir dünyayı lirik bir şiire dönüştürüyor.
Takis Kanellopoulos (1933-1990)
He was born in Thessaloniki. He made his debut with the poetic ethnographical documentary “Macedonian Wedding” (1960). His first feature film “Ouranos”, competed for Palme d'Or in Cannes. He continued his highly praised lyrical perspective in his future films. He received Best Director in Thessaloniki with his film “Interlude” in 1968.
