A surrealistic view on the entertainment industry
Vlasios_Tzomos11 July 2018
During the shooting of a TV commercial spot on a beach, the crew watch a middle-aged man, who holds an umbrella, to disappears into the sea. The production company says that it was nothing more than a commercial trick, but the sound recorder and composer of the spot music, who was present during the disappearence, has second thoughts and starts to investigate what really happened. During this investigation the hero tries to understand what is logical and what absurd. The brilliant final scene shows us how the media manipulate the audience as a non thinking mass. Nikitas Tsakiroglou gives an exceptional perfomance as the main character. Stamatis Spanoudakis music score is one of the best ever written for a greek movie. Panayotopoulos gave us an excellent surrealistic view on the entertainment industry.
