"Attila 74"
1974
Directed by Michael Cacoyannis

Acclaimed as an "extraordinary and devastatingly powerful film," Attila 74 confronts the real-life tragedy of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974. The film "is history in the making. Remarkably, Cacoyannis manages to sustain at once a passionate engagement and a wide historical view--perhaps because he is seeing events always in terms of people" (Times of London). The film, wrote the L.A. Times, "is at once a deeply personal record and a formal work of art with a structure and a tragic sense of the inevitable, worthy of Euripides." Greek with English subtitles. 103 minutes.
