Film Reviews DANILO
TRELES is like a dadaist game led by the ancient Volpone, the Fox Man, the
spirit of cunning, master of perversion and sarcasm. The whole film is a
delusion, a humorous tale without a plot. The most diverse characters,
races and languages meet in the mountains and rivers of Epirus. They
converse in anything from Latin to an African dialect, transmitting
knowledge and experiences; forms and bodies too speak their own language
in harmony or in contrast to nature, water, trees, stone. A gentle black
musician gazes at a small lake from high up, in the soft light of dawn or
sunset. In an interminable gesture he stretches out his body and catches
an egg, contemplating it. There is something reminiscent of the down of
creation in this scene. kathimerini / Yannis Bakoyannopoulos |
