CGiii Comment
One of Markopoulos's most critically acclaimed films, The Illiac Passion is an ambitious work based on Prometheus Unbound. For his cast, Markopoulos made imaginative use of artist friends and underground figures in the roles of mythical beings.
There was a trailer...but, it has since disappeared.
