What connects the early films of Yorgos Lanthimos with Vasilis Kekatos's 2019 Cannes triumph The Distance Between Us and the Sky? What is the lasting legacy of Panos Koutras's 2009 trans narrative Strella: A Woman's Way to gender and sexual identity activism in Greece? What role did cultural collectives play in the formation of a 'weird history' of Greek cinema? How did cinema and other cultural forms respond to a sense of crisis and an ever-expanding management of life that we now call biopolitics? This book poses such questions to establish a cinematic and cultural history of Greece during the last difficult decade in an engaged and highly original manner. It focuses on key 'New' or 'Weird Wave' films in Greek cinema post-2009, proposing the Greek Weird Wave as a paradigmatic cinema movement of biopolitical realism. At once representing, reframing and reimagining the present, the Greek Weird Wave points to much larger developments in World Cinema. Dimitris Papanikolaou is Associate Professor of Modern Greek at the University of Oxford and Fellow of St Cross College
