"Amnesia" is my next short film. A legendary disco club in Thessaloniki in the 1980s, the working-class of the west side, and the underground queer community of the city are the backdrop of this story. The film follows a boy and a girl, exploring themes of love, regret, lust, and vulnerability. "Stathis and Angie are in love. His secret is going to break them apart. Thirty years later they will meet again. A disco, queer, erotic drama of Thessaloniki’s working class in the 80s."
