P.S.
Hi there, I'm Markos. This is a film about time and how I used to see things away from my parents in a very quiet place. Each year, my brother and I would spend ten days in Kallikrateia, away from our parents and under Grandma's silent care. This short film whispers our story, weaving a surreal tapestry of family bonds and the gentle yet profound impact of being temporarily displaced.

THE PROJECT
Project: CURE embodies the spirit of transformation, a journey through the profound landscapes of human emotion and evolution. At its core, this project is a philosophical exploration of what it means to be human, tracing the intricate dance between our innermost struggles and our collective heritage.
In the realm of CURE, art becomes a medium for healing and reflection. It is through the fusion of movement and stillness, of past and present, that we encounter the raw essence of our existence. This project does not merely tell a story; it invites us to experience a metamorphosis, to witness the unfolding of the human spirit in its purest form.
The philosophy of Project CURE is rooted in the belief that understanding our origins and embracing our vulnerabilities are crucial to our growth. It challenges us to look beyond the surface, to delve into the depths of our emotions, and to confront the echoes of our ancestral past. By acknowledging the pain, joy, and resilience that define us, we unlock the potential for true transformation.
Project CURE is a celebration of humanity's indomitable spirit. It recognizes that our journey is not linear, but a series of intertwined experiences that shape who we are. This project is a testament to the power of introspection and the courage it takes to confront our own narratives. Through the lens of art, we find a mirror reflecting our own strengths and fragilities, urging us to embrace both with equal reverence.
In essence, Project CURE is a philosophical meditation on the dance of life. It is a call to honor our past, to heal our present, and to envision a future where our stories are intertwined in a tapestry of resilience and hope. Through its artistic expression, CURE offers a sanctuary for contemplation, a space where the soul can find solace and inspiration in the ever-evolving journey of being human.
