Knifer
Directed by Yannis Economides

Niko is an average guy with no ambitions, living in rural Greece. His father’s sudden death reunites him with his uncle, who invites him to live and work at his house on the outskirts of Athens. Not having much to lose, Niko takes his chances, accepting his uncle’s offer. He takes on the job of protecting his uncle’s purebred dogs from the hostile neighbours. Driven by envy, lust and anger, Niko descends into a vicious circle of perpetual antagonism, the struggle for power over others and discontent.

2010 | 108 min | in Greek with English subtitles
