The 4th Annual Greek International Film Festival Tour (Canada) will be in 11 Canadian cities both in theatre and in some cases on-line running from1-31 October2024.
In the American short “The Coordinates” husband (Lukas Hassel) and wife (Despina Moraitou) legal team successfully defend the accused murderer of a woman so he walks away with an acquittal.
The victim’s mother appeals to husband and wife to reveal the location of her daughter’s body. Ostensibly the husband is crumbling under guilt as both husband and wife know the location of the body yet the wife sees it simply a case of successfully defending their client. Wife reminds husband a lawyer is bound by ethics to maintain in strictest confidence all information obtained from a client. The husband is off track mentally battling with his inability to disclose the body’s location and we wonder if the vast quantity of scotch he is guzzling and pills in his hand will do him and put his ravaged mind to rest. Before he grabs the pills and scotch to wash them down with scotch he drafts several attempts to explain the coordinates of the body. And then from a most unlikely source true justice is obtained at a most severe cost. Compelling synergy between Despina Moraitou and Lukas Hassel.
Written and directed by Despina Moraitou.
