The cold sea and the melancholic wind.

7/10 2022 Beijing Greek Film Festival. Eating and drinking men and women, the great desire of man, finding memories and reconstructing the past. Talassa Tavern, the cold sea and melancholic wind, the rich emotions and the warm fire. Paintings and movies go hand in hand, recording the warmth scattered in the corners of life.

What is impressive is not the food, but the meeting and parting of diners, the dance, embracing, kissing, touching and comforting of sad souls...

2022 Beijing Greek Film Festival, I participated in a film "marathon" and saw four Greek films in two days.

"Green Sea" is the cold sea and melancholy wind, "Her Job" is the strength and struggle of tired people under social turmoil, "All The Pretty Little Horses" is the unknown and lost path of the anxious colt living in the room, and "Little Men" is the warm, beautiful, calm and moving gorgeous and colorful youth.

The four films have different themes, but in tandem they present a kind of hazy soft poetry, which is perhaps the artistic temperament bred by the unique cultural soil of Greek cinema, with a hint of salty sea breeze smell lingering between the nose and breath.
