Elefsina notre Amour
Mahdi Fleifel / Greece / 9' / 2023.
Synopsis
Deserted landscapes, ancient ruins and abandoned shipwrecks at sea. Elefsina’s archaeological sites don’t come close to being as hauntingly beautiful as these dead ships. They stand majestically like memorial sculptures and bring magnetism to the eye. In fact, these are the neglected refugees of Elefsina. For how did they end up there, anyway? What's their story? That's the story I want to know. Elefsina Notre Amour is a short sci-fi essay, a timeless archive, filmed on 16mm colour Kodak.
