CinĂ©maton n°9: Katerina Thomadaki is this intriguing piece that feels more like an intimate encounter than a standard documentary. Shot on a March morning in '78, it captures Katerina's essence in a quiet, almost meditative manner. The film's pacing is deliberately slow, allowing the viewer to really absorb her presence and the atmosphere of Paris at that time. There's a certain charm in its simplicity, the way it draws you into the world of this Greek filmmaker without any overt narrative. It feels like a time capsule, reflecting not just Katerinaâs artistic journey but also the cultural landscape of the late '70s. The aesthetic is raw, almost like a home video, which adds to its allure.
This film is part of the CinĂ©maton series, which has a cult following among collectors. Itâs not the easiest to find, as many of these titles were released in limited formats and have largely been overshadowed by more conventional releases. However, its rarity has sparked an interest among those who appreciate avant-garde cinema and the unique perspective it offers into the life of Katerina Thomadaki. The scarcity of physical media for this film, particularly on VHS or any early formats, adds to its collectible nature.
