The Enchantress

1985 · 98 min

A dreamlike folk-tale drift through spirits and fairies, slow and strange, more mood than momentum.

Overview: Combining Greek popular tradition and magic realist irrationalism, it tells the story of a 17-year-old youth who runs away from his village to find The Enchantress, a beautiful fairy feared by all. Travelling through an enchanted world of ghosts, spirits, imps and fairies, he leans what true love and passion really are.
