Here are some selected works that I have done throughout the years
The Net (2019)
DESCRIPTION
"The Net" is a 37-minute surrealistic drama, following the protagonist "Ben" through his perception of reality. As the story progresses, it becomes evident, through strategically placed foreshadowing, that Ben has been experiencing the entire sequence of events from within a coma. The film's aesthetic is intentionally unclear and abstract, mirroring Ben's emotional turmoil and traumatic experiences which shape his perception. A recurring motif, a red-coloured "Net," manifests throughout the film, symbolizing Ben's feelings of entrapment not only inside the coma but towards his own life story with one event after the other causing a domino effect of inevitable consequences. Overall, the film explores the depth of human consciousness, blurring the lines between reality and perception in a compelling narrative journey.

ColorBlind (2023)
DESCRIPTION:
Love for the sport or just a way to justify violence? Hooligan or just a kid trapped in the wrong community? They seem angry, but the “mask” they wear hides their true emotions. “Color Blind” is about taking that mask off and stop seeing people for the team the color of their shirt represents.

Masked Leader: Kostis Malliaropoulos
Masked Man 1: Elias Velaetis
Masked Man 2: Karolos Tsezanas
Rona (2021)
DESCRIPTION:
My 3-minute experimental film “Rona” takes place in a world where a pandemic has lasted for decades. The main protagonist is an unidentified man who works as a “Physical education” teacher in a high school. His big dream is to become an important scientist, something that is evident from the way he teaches his classes through physics and mathematics. The students don’t seem to sense something wrong with the way he acts. Due to the pandemic, they were born in transitional chaos, where people don’t know how to behave. For the protagonist, this creates a gap between reality and his fantasy.
The Mask (2018)
DESCRIPTION
In the shadow of his escalating drug addiction, Elias, a young and vulnerable soul, finds himself ensnared by an invisible 'Mask' that distances him from the essence of his being, his family, and the genuine emotions that once defined him. Unbeknownst to Elias, this metaphorical mask not only conceals his true self from the world but also blinds him to the reality of his situation, weaving a barrier that isolates him from the love and support desperately needed.
