About The Night Fernando Pessoa Met Constantine Cavafy
Portugal's Fernando Pessoa and Greece's Constantine Cavafy were two of the greatest poets of the 20th century, and the literary giants finally met in 1929 aboard a transatlantic ocean liner carrying immigrants to the U.S. This genre-bending documentary from Greek filmmaker Stelios Charalambopoulos blends truth with fiction in imagining what that meeting must have been like, offering an innovative mix of archival footage and fictional re-enactments of the poets interacting with one of the ship's immigrant passengers.
Directed by Stelios Charalampopoulos, The Night Fernando Pessoa Met Constantine Cavafy leans on a strong ensemble — Makis Arvanitakis, Δημήτρης Οικονομίδης, Othon Metaxas — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about history titles of 2008.
