Dogtooth/Kynodontas (dir. Yorgos Lanthimos, 2009)
"2011 Academy Award Nominee For Best Foreign Language Film and winner of the Un Certain Regard prize at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival, Yorgos Lanthimos' Dogtooth is a darkly funny look at three teenagers confined to their parents' isolated country estate and living in an absurdist, nightmarish experiment of manipulation and oppression."

Little England/Mikra Anglia (dir. Pantelis Voulgaris, 2013)
"Set on the picturesque Greek island of Andros, Little England is the name of a pre war shipping enterprise. The opening scene of crashing surf is a forbearance of the story‘s turbulent and tragic events. 20 year-old Orsa is passionately in love with second mate Spyros, which she dares not reveal to anyone, least of all her domineering mother, Mina, herself the wife of a captain who prefers the seas over Andros. Without considering the girls desire to love, Mina conspires to wed them to the wealthiest suitors; Orsa to ship owner and captain Nikos Vatokouzis and Moscha to the very man Mina rejected as Orsa’s future husband, Spyros Maltabes, who returns a captain after years in the lower rankings of a ship‘s hierarchy. A final tragedy seals the fate of the sisters as the story progresses into the throes of World War II."
