Ulysses' Gaze

Movie Information

Having spent 35 years making films in the United States, Greek-American director 'A' returns to his homeland of Greece to attend a screening of his latest controversial film. From there, he sets out in search of three undeveloped film reels made at the turn of the century by a pair of pioneering Greek filmmakers, the Manaki Brothers. As 'A' embarks on a long Balkan quest to unearth the fabled footage and find his lost innocence, a dangerous, emotional journey from Athens to war-ravaged Sarajevo begins, unfolding the director's odyssey.—Nick Riganas
