The announcement of a fatal illness takes Irma to Greece, the kingdom of clarity, where she follows a journey dictated by the god Apollo and guided by the respective sacred places. Some twenty years later, she revisits this Apollonian journey. Between João Miguel Fernandes Jorge’s short story (based on the personal report of that journey) and the director’s own experience, Fuck The Polis takes us to Greek islands, between voices and seas, stones and dances, winds, temples, ruins and corroded gods. It’ s about a deep connection to the world, about a profound attempt to see the world around us, when history coexists with the present times, our memories and our feelings dance with the objectivity of the reality that surrounds us.
Presented at the FIDMarseile.
