Περιγραφή

Greece, 2013, 107mins (Drama)

Director Yorgos Tsemberopoulos

 

"A serious movie, without concessions..." Agence France Presse

In this powerful drama, an idealistic father confronts his own moral and ethical beliefs when fighting for justice for his family – whatever the cost.

The progressive Kostas (Manolis Mavromatakis) is a pacifist living a quiet life in Athens where he runs a garden supplies store. His life – and that of his family – is abruptly shattered when they are subjected to an aggravated burglary in their home.

In the aftermath of this infinitely damaging assault, Kostas struggles with what he perceives to be his failure to protect his family when they needed him most. Forced to question his own beliefs, Kostas embarks on a mission to right a wrong.

"Carefully treading the dangerous tides of racism, xenophobia and vigilantism [The Enemy Within] shines a light on the everyman's potential for extreme evil, as well as the depth of humanism hidden even in the darkest of hearts." Cineuropa
