Movie Moments - Landscape in the Mist, 1988

Don't worry. I will tell you our story.
In the beginning there was chaos ...



Landscape in the Mist a journey towards a mythical origin as two siblings, Voula and Alexander, attempt to find their unknown and essentially nonexistent biological father who, their mother evasively (and conveniently) explains, lives in Germany. Guided by daydreamed, unanswered missives to their eternally silent father, the children’s odyssey is an existential quest for ancestral identity and community. (source)

Theo Angelopoulos, one of the great European film-makers, died this week, aged 76, after a road accident. He'll be terribly missed!
