Lost in the Woods

About This Movie

Lost in the Woods is an intriguing documentary that takes you through the lens of Costantinos Pittas' solitary travels from 1984 to 1989. Shot in stark black-and-white, the film captures the raw essence of life on both sides of the Iron Curtain. You can almost feel the weight of history in each frame. What sets it apart is Pittas' intimate approach—it's not just about landscapes or landmarks but the people, their stories, their struggles. The pacing feels contemplative, letting you absorb the atmosphere of a divided Europe. The Minox 35mm gives it this tactile quality, making you appreciate the art of photography as much as the subject matter. A unique exploration of an era, for those who appreciate the intersection of travel and human connection.
