LX 2048

This docudrama is the search for the lost dream through the life of a man who believed he could achieve the impossible. A talented pianist, great ballet dancer and impresario of art, Alexandre Iolas, who lived a fairytale life but died like a hero of ancient Greek tragedy, can still, 33 years after his death, inspire a young artist. Realism and surrealism intertwine in a tapestry of feelings and emotions, light shines through, and artistic creation is the one and only redemption. —Thessaloniki Documentary Festival
