At Agios Ioannis

About This Movie

At Agios Ioannis is pretty unique, you know? It’s this documentary shot right outside a church in southern Messenia. The whole vibe is very intimate, almost like you're peeking into a quiet moment in time. The decision to film on an iPhone 13 gives it this raw, unpolished texture that really suits the setting. The sound recorded with a Shure MV88 mic adds depth, capturing the ambient sounds of the area. It’s not flashy, but there's something really contemplative about watching the everyday life unfold there. The pacing is slow, letting you soak in the atmosphere. It’s a slice of life that feels both personal and universal, which makes it stand out in the documentary space.
