Review of Knifer

Knifer (2010)
7/10
The dark urban side of greece in black and white
3 January 2020
This is one of the best films from the point of direction and photography in the recent history of greek cinema. Oikonomidis best work to this day, with a shockingly realistic portrait of the urban everyday life and the well hidden secrets and passions that every house hides from the outside world. All of them are being revealed with a rare honesty. The performances are solid,not great,except the leading actor who manages with his eyes to give us all the emotions and the psychological pressure that he is feeling around him, even when he goes for a cup of coffee. Several awards for this film, which by far is the most underrated one in the past ten years in my country.
