Tlamess

60th TIFF: Greek Premiere

After his mother’s death, a young soldier named “S” obtains a week’s leave and returns home. When he is called back to camp, he deserts the army and wonders seriously injured in a dystopian no man’s land. “F” is a pregnant woman sank into a languorous life in an isolated luxurious villa. Two lost souls, who will bond under uncanny circumstances. An array of mythological elements, in a seductive blend of harsh realism and poetic elegy.
