From the caustic look of K.. Zappa as the anxious look of the Israeli L.. Samriz

"Night Pictures" is the title of its new section Thessaloniki Film Festival to be launched this year.

With films that break taboos and explore the dark side of human nature, they provoke suspicious viewers and invite the uninitiated to discover them..

A Greek ,Costas Zapas and an Israeli, Lior Samriz are the people the festival focuses on this year. The family, sexuality and politics are primitively exposed in K.'s films. Zappa, which in fact have found commercial distribution in Greece: «Uncut Family» (2004), «The Last Porn Movie» (2006), "Small freedoms" (2008) and "The Red Mary Rebellion" (2010).

Extreme digital cinema images with scenes of forbidden eroticism, authoritarian violence catalyze moral laws within the claustrophobic family environment. We remind you that K.. Zapas is preparing a new film entitled "Frankenstein: A Death Odyssey», whose music will be signed by the internationally renowned Japanese composer Sigeru Ubebayashi.

Born in 1978 in Israel, based in Berlin, ol. Samriz raises questions about identity issues, culture and sexuality and composes a diverse cinema: influences from video art and avant garde scene, a cinematic world that resembles a temperamental home movie.

The semi-autobiographical debut of "Japan Japan" (2007), the "Saturn Returns" (2009) το «The Magic Desk» (2010) και «Mirrors for Princes» (2011) are some of his works that will be played during the festival which he has also secured and they are his short films.
