In a remote Greek village, in the northern borders of Epirus where traditions endure, an old couple tells his story. The grandfather tells us about the war and its atrocities but also about fairy tales dear to the rural world. Memories follow one after the other, as if in a need to finally share them with someone, to externalize them. Meanwhile the grandmother, often in the background, is busy in the kitchen, not wanting her guests to lack anything.
Pogoniskos is a story of transmission, not to forget and not to be forgetten. A tender portrait that the director, Thanasis Neofotistos, has made of his own grandparents, showing thus the ability of cinema to immortalize moments of life with all its emotions and sometimes its silences.
Original Title - Πωγωνίσκος (Pogoniskos)
