Pity

“Stay sad.”

A lawyer (Giannis Drakopoulos) has been grieving for a while now, and the neighbors bring him cakes and the dry cleaner pats his arm. He feels warm only when someone is sorry for him, and his wife (Evi Saoulidou) watches him hold on to the feeling. Babis Makridis films this in flat, patient frames that let the awkward silences run long.
