Andreas Savvidis is a writer who uses the people around him as material for his books. Beyond his actual experiences, he also makes up imaginary people and events to further the plot of his novel in progress, for which he is ready to sacrifice both his personal life and happiness. A number of individuals will play an important role in his life and the novel: an attractive nurse bitter about men, a mailman who pokes his nose everywhere, his younger gay brother, an older friend, and his sick mother. As director Fotini Siskopoulou’s first feature, the film demonstrates her sound knowledge of film language and creates a closed, stifling, and erotic atmosphere, in which her writer-hero navigates.
A series of small and rather similar nudes Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu and Eren Eyüboğlu produced in the early 1930s almost resemble a ‘visual conversation’ that focus on a pictorial search. It is also possible to find the visual reflections of this earlier search in the synthesis Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu reached with his stylistic abstractions in the 1950s.
