La mirada de Ulises
La mirada de Ulises
Greece, 176 min, 1995
A Greek film maker exiled to the United States returns to his native city to undertake a journey through the Balkans in search of three reels of a lost film. From Albania to Macedonia, from Bucharest to Constanza, along the Danube to Belgrade, and finally to Sarajevo. Along the way he encounters his own history, the Balkan past, and the women he could love, hoping to recover in those forgotten images the innocence of the first gaze.
