The Jury Experience : Meurtre à un million de dollars ou toile de mensonges?
Tu as été convoqué·e en tant que juré·e. Inspiré d’une histoire vraie, ce drame judiciaire met en scène la rencontre explosive de la cupidité, de la passion et de la vengeance lors d’un procès pour meurtre captivant. Sans preuves ADN, avec un triangle amoureux compliqué et un divorce à plusieurs millions en toile de fond, qui dit la vérité ? Pendant le spectacle, analyse les témoignages, scrute les preuves, réponds à des questions complexes et tente de découvrir ce qui s’est vraiment passé. Chaque mot compte. Chaque détail est important. Et à la fin, ton vote décidera du sort de l’accusé. La justice sera-t-elle rendue ? C’est à toi de le décider.
CINÉ-CLUB HELLENIQUE - RED TEACHER
Tuesday, January 27 at 7:00 PM and Wednesday, January 28 at 9:00 PM at Ciné Utopia
RED TEACHER (Greece, 2024, 100 min), directed by Stelios Charalampopoulos | Original greek version with English subtitles.
Admission restricted to audiences aged 16 and over.
Synopsis:
Two political trials and executions have left an indelible mark on post-Civil War Greece. The trial of Nikos Belogiannis and the trial of Nikos Ploumpidis.
However, History was not equally fair to both of them. Belogiannis left honored and became an idol for his comrades around the world, while Ploumbidis left alone, slandered by enemies and friends, dishonored. Although stigmatized and subject to expulsion from his party, Ploumbidis refused to renounce his principles and sign a statement of repentance, something that would have saved his life. He passionately defended his ideology and his party at the trial, even though the latter had unjustly denounced him as a scoundrel and provocateur. Essentially, Ploumbidis remains an unhealed wound for the world of the left - at least for some part of it - and certainly is not a black, blurred page of its history. Personal drama and collective destiny co-shape this Promethean hero, who seems to come straight out of an ancient tragedy.
