About This Movie

Zabeta is this raw, intimate documentary that peels back the layers of a grandmother's life, revealing the complexities of migration and personal upheaval. It's not just about her journey from Greece to Canada and back; there's this palpable sense of alienation that resonates throughout. The pacing feels fluid, almost like a conversation where you slowly grasp the weight of her experiences – the divorce, the remarriage, all set against the backdrop of the 60s. This film has a DIY quality that adds to its charm, making you feel like you’re sifting through a personal archive of old photographs and stories, getting a glimpse of a world shaped by stereotypes and cultural dislocation. It's a quietly powerful piece.

Documentary format that feels very personal.Explores themes of migration and alienation beautifully.DIY aesthetic adds to the authentic feel.
