The Empty Houses Are Ours To Do What We Want With Them

Giorgos Efthimiou / Greece / 2024 / World Premiere / 7 min.


synopsis

A cross between a reportage film and a video essay, the film follows an ordinary evening with the Pugnant Film Series, a Greek independent organisation that organises unconventional screenings for audiences who want to see the most interesting things from the world of independent, auteur and experimental film. This time, the venue for the cinephilic event is an abandoned house in the centre of Athens. Its empty spaces are transformed into cinema halls, which, through the influence of culture and a shared cinematic experience, momentarily return to life. 

“The empty houses are ours to do what we want with them.”
