CGiii Comment

Watching and listening to people eat is...unbearable. That's half the film!

The other half...well, let's just say: Room for improvement.


Watch...in Greek...

The(ir) Blurb...

"Tattoo" is a symbolic Greek short film, inspired by the *Prometheus myth. Marina decides to come out to her parents as a lesbian in the middle of a usual Sunday lunch. Her dad kicks her out. The question is what she is going to decide after this heartbreaking incident. "Tattoo" in the Samoan dialect means"the correct one". Traumatic experiences are like tattoos. Also, like a tattoo, traumas can symbolize different things. It's a story about human vulnerability. Also this film broaches patriarchy, homosexuality issues and tradition, family models. It's a film exclusively made by women.
