Lettre à Théo
Elodie Lélu
The greatest Greek director, Theo Angelopoulos, died on January 24, 2012, when he was run over by a motorcycle on the set of his final film. He was surrounded by his team, which included Elodie Lélu. The unfinished film spoke of the victims of the Greek crisis and warned of the massive influx of refugees. Lélu addresses this letter in the form of a film to the deceased filmmaker, to tell him how sadly right he was. Music by Eleni Karaindrou, regular composer for Angelopoulos and ECM icon.
