Adults in the Room

Adults in the Room; Costa-Gavras, 2019, versions: OR,SS,ES, languages: deu, ell, eng, fra

Director: Costa-Gavras • Scenario: Costa-Gavras • Podľa predlohy: Yanis Varoufakis • Cast: Christos Loulis, Valeria Golino, Georges Corraface, Ulrich Tukur, Daan Schuurmans, Colin Stinton, Francesco Acquaroli, Christos Stergioglou

Based on the book Adults in the Room: My Battle with Europe’s Deep Establishment, the political memoirs of Yanis Varoufakis, the Greek economist, academic, philosopher and politician. Behind closed doors, a human tragedy plays out. A universal theme, a story of people trapped in an inhuman network of power. The brutal circle of Eurogroup meetings, imposing on Greece a dictatorship of austerity with utter disregard for humanity and compassion. A claustrophobic trap with no way out, exerting pressure on the protagonists and finally dividing them. A tragedy in the Ancient Greek sense: the characters are neither good nor evil, but rather driven by the consequences of their own conception of the right thing to do. A tragedy befitting our very modern times.
