Costa-Gavras is a true blue political filmmaker. With a career spanning over Five decades, this master filmmaker has always presented contemporary political issues and critiqued the system - sometimes as a satire, sometimes in form of hard hitting one. Outstanding among his politically committed films are Z (1969), winner of the Best Film in a Foreign Language and Best Editing Academy Awards and of the Special Jury Prize at Cannes, Missing (1981), Best Screenplay Academy Award and Golden Palm at Cannes, Music Box (1989), Golden Bear at Berlin, and Amen (2002), César for Best Screenplay.
Behind closed doors, a human tragedy plays out.A universal theme, a story of people trapped in an inhuman network of power.The brutal circle of the Eurogroup meetings, imposing on Greece thedictatorship of austerity with utter disregard for humanity and compassion. A claustrophobic trap with no way out, exerting pressure on the protagonists and finally dividing them.A tragedy in the Ancient Greek sense: the characters are not good or evil, but driven by the consequences of their ownconception of what it is right to do.A tragedy for our very modern times.
