About The City and the City
Six chapters describe the lives and perils of Thessaloniki’s Jewish community which was almost entirely exterminated by the Nazis in 1943. Past and present become an echo chamber in which the viewer experiences, aghast, the madness of humanity.
Directed by Hristos Passalis, Syllas Tzoumerkas, The City and the City leans on a strong ensemble — Vasilis Kanakis, Alexandros Vardaxoglou, Angeliki Papoulia — 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 drama titles of 2022.
