Fan - work in progress

?Fan? turns childhood vengeance into stark neorealist poetry, offering the most poignant answer to the cruelty and the selfishness that rule the adult world.

Alkis and Machi live in Drapetsona with Lemonia, their 11-year-old daughter. Lemonia is a strange, rather introverted little girl that often witnesses a lot of fights around the house. In order to dead with the situation, the little girl has conjured up her own little universe, where she often takes a refuge in her mind.

During a visit to her grandparents’ house, she discovers a hand grenade at a nearby ruin. So one night, when her parents are fighting again, she suddenly shows up holding the hand grenade. From that moment on, she begins staging her parents’ relationship from scratch under the threat of the grenade, like a tyrannical director.

“Fan” turns childhood vengeance into stark neorealist poetry, offering the most poignant answer to the cruelty and the selfishness that rule the adult world.
