Ulysses' Gaze (Greek: Το βλέμμα του Οδυσσέα, translit. To Vlemma tou Odyssea) is a 1995 Greek film directed by Theo Angelopoulos.
Let’s watch an important and timely part of this movie.
…………….
I want us to be friends. In my village, to become friends…
we’ve got to drink from the same glass…
and listen to the same song.
Know something? Greece is dying.
We’re dying as a people. We’ve come full circle.
I don’t know how many thousands of years…
among broken stones and statues… and we’re dying.
But if Greece is to die she’d better do it quickly…
because the agony lasts too long makes too much noise.
Hey, nature! You’re alone? I’m alone too. Have a biscuit!
……………. (performed by Thanassis Vengos)
