Iris Zachmanidi, "LOOKING FOR THE LOCRIANS"

Yanni, Christo and Lucas, three distinctive personalities between 40 and 60, are roommates in a protected apartment in Amfissa, a city with a past reaching as far as the first Hellenes, the Locrians. They are mentally ill.

Though under the daily supervision of the Society of Social Psychiatry and Mental Health, they regulate matters of their common home on their own and lead their personal, social, or professional lives.

Constantly interacting among themselves, with the therapists, the other patients, the city and citizens of Amfissa, the soil, the olive trees and the huge mountains around, they further interact with the filmmaker herself: she wishes to deeply know and understand them, they are in her movie in return.

A story of love.
