India Blues

The relationship between two very different men filtered through eight different emotional states they experience: pain, desire, happiness, jealousy, peace, love and anger. Significant and insignificant moments in their common trajectory spark an exploration of the chaotic universe of love and the tumultuous emotions that follow suit.

In “India Blues”, George Markakis tells a love story that goes above and beyond the usual queer issues through the use of minimal dialogue, plenty of improvisation and barely contained tension. Markakis shields audiences from discovering the chronological order of events, leading them straight to the emotional core of the movie and how it reflects his personal experience.

The first kiss, the first time they have sex, the awkward silences, the last embrace, they all get mixed up, in true Godard fashion. Just like he once said, “a story should have a beginning, a middle and an end, but not necessarily in that order”. N.S.
