Foreign Local

Αn intimate film that brings to life three personal stories about the feeling of being in between; foreign and local at the same time, in a place that has its own, special history. Through the use of stop-motion animation and the most surprising materials (phone cables and candy wrappers, among others), the director animates the portrait of three unique figures that manifest their identity daringly and remind us of the impasse and the agony of the discourse on “national purification.”
