Nikos Xydakis -Dionysis Kapsalis

Rue Lepsius


Nikos Xydakis embarks on a quest for traces of Constantine Cavafy. Which he has every right to do, seeing as the director – like the poet – was born in Egypt and because the Greek East is a theme he has addressed frequently in his work. Cavafy’s old age, infirmity and final trip to Greece provide a context in which elective affinities can be picked out, and in which myth can play hide and seek with the reality, and the echoes of a city that is no more with the soundtrack of the present.
