2014’s Xenia follows two brothers on a journey across Greece. Straight Odysseas and gay Dany are in search of the father who abandoned them. Filmmaker Panos Koutras uses the story to examine the treatment of immigrants and minorities in contemporary Greece. The often-dark story is lightened by quirky characters and a streak of surrealism. My guest had high praise for the work.
