UTOPIA. The Poetics of Borders: Berlin – Nicosia 2026

Directed by Vouvoula Skoura

The beginning. A one-take shot, images of Famagusta, as Pyrros Theofanopoulos recites the text of Niki Marangou, while the gaze of Niovi Charalambous describes the dead city. Composing images and secret connotations that map out the signs of people as they travel, following the routes of memory. Words flow across divided grounds and lands of exile, yearning to overcome separation lines and borders. Niki in Cyprus, Niki in Berlin.
