Μαγνητικά πεδία|Magnetic Fields

A nod to the trilogy Before Sunrise, Before Sunset, Before Midnight, this gentle and touching road movie featuring stellar performances by the exquisite duo Elena Topalidou and Antonis Tsiotsiopoulos won six awards at Thessaloniki IFF, including the Golden Alexander Award, as well as five IRIS – Greek Film Academy Awards.

While travelling alone to an unknown destination, Elena unexpectedly finds herself on a ferry to Cephalonia. There, she will share her thoughts and burdens with Antonis, a man she randomly meets on board. The two of them decide to wander around the island in search of a good place to bury Antonis’ metal box.

While travelling alone to an unknown destination, Elena unexpectedly finds herself on a ferry to Cephalonia. Antonis, a man on the same ferry, heads to the island’s cemetery to bury his aunt’s bone metal box. When his car breaks down, Elena suggests to drive him to a nearby hotel and, the following day, to the cemetery. There, they are informed that the cemetery cannot keep the box for bureaucratic reasons. Their in-between chemistry is magnetic. Enjoying the playful teasing and each other’s company, they decide to continue wandering on the island in search of a good place to bury the metal box.
