FILM CLUB SCREENING - Greek Film Festival 2011. Zorba The Greek (Greek/1964/142mins) Dir.Michael Cacoyannis. Cast: Anthony Quinn, Alan Bates, Irene Papas. When he hires an eccentric stranger named Zorba to work on a mine he has inherited on Crete, Basil, a timid English writer, finds himself drawn into a world far more exciting and dangerous than any he has known. Zorba quotes too many women, endures perils in the mine that scare all the other workers, and defies a group of men seeking vengeance on a young widow who has rejected their advances. Eventually, Zorba’s undying exuberance forces Basil to undergo a transformation into becoming a more active participant in his own life.

FILM CLUB SCREENING - Greek Film Festival 2011. Pandora (Greek/2006/97mins) Dir.George Stamboulopoulos. Vassilis wanders around in the dilapidated house, where he was raised by his uncle Kostis. His mind is flooded with memories of a time long-gone. It’s the early 1950’s, the aftermath of a civil war. Vassili’s father, Manos, was still in exile when an American woman, Pandora, descended on the village. Like her mythological namesake, she too wrecked havoc on men’s hearts: Kostis fell in love with her, and the little village community saw the invasion of modern customs. When Manos returns from exile, Pandora steals his heart, but in the end he turns her down. When a tragedy strikes, an accident many believe to be a deliberate killing, things take a tragic turn for the young Vassilis. Winner of the Best Picture at Thessaloniki International Film Festival Collab: The Embassy of Greece in India and Indo-Hellenic Friendship League

A world of beauty and innocence will be threatened, while loss and betrayal will change things forever. A menage- a- trois with two brothers falling for the same woman, a prophetic staging of Euripides' "Trojan Women" at the seaside town, a passionate nationalist who is driven to the extreme: a small community living its personal stories, dreams, hidden and compelling desires, set at the backdrop of the political turbulence of that summer.
