Visiting E. C. Gonatas
January 1, 1998
50m
Overview
A portrait of the writer and translator, lover of the small form, E. C. Gonatas, filmed over the course of a year at his home in Kato Kifissia. The camera silently follows Gonatas everywhere: on his tours of the garden, in old warehouses, immersed in dictionaries, on the floor as he pets a cat. Without ever referring to his writing capacity, the documentary captures many of the elements of his work: his love of nature, the paradox, the futility but also the hilarity of things.
