The Travelling Players
1975 · 223 min
A long, hypnotic, mournful trudge through history, with static wide shots and recurring songs that make the past feel like an endless loop.
- Overview
- A traveling theatre troupe tours the Greek countryside from 1939 to the early 1950s, staging “Golfo the Shepherdess”. As the years pass, its members endure persecution, betrayal, executions, and exile. Their personal stories become entangled with the country’s major historical events, in a seemingly endless cycle of violence and loss.
