In Theo Angelopoulos'
haunting fable odyssey, Landscape in the Mist (1988), an adolescent girl
named Voula (Tania Palaiologou) begins to tell a bedtime story to her younger
brother Alexander (Michalis Zeke) before being interrupted by the sound of
their mother's approaching footsteps. Disappointed, Alexander impatiently
complains, "This story will never get finished." It is an innocent
observation that appropriately characterizes Angelopoulos'
epic and distinctive native cinema as well. From the absence of the
conventional word 'End' at the conclusion of his films to his penchant for
interweaving variations of episodes from his earlier films (which, in turn, are
often culled from personal experience) to create interconnected
'chapters' of a continuous, unfinished work, Angelopoulos'
cinema is both intimately autobiographical and culturally allegorical and, like
the children of Landscape in the Mist, traverses a metaphysical plane
where the real and the mythic figuratively (and sublimely) intersect to map the
organic and borderless landscape of the Greek soul.

SYNOPSIS
In a working-class
suburb of Athens,
two illegitimate children, Voula, aged 11 and her brother Alexander, aged 5,
dream each night that they will join their father in Germany.
The father, in reality, does not exist and has been invented by their mother to
keep them quiet. One day, Voula and Alexander decide to run away from home and
go to Germany
in search of their father. They go to the railway station where they board a
train for Germany.
When they are taken off the train because they do not have tickets they manage
to give the police the slip and thus resume their journey. After a few hours of
walking in the night they run into a family of travelling players led by a
certain Orestes. They are a group of actors who wander from one end of Greece
to the other always performing the same play. Voula and Alexander follow the
travelling players for a while, they abandon them, finally reaching the main
highway going north. As luck will have it this time they meet a truck driver, a
vulgar drunk, who gives them a lift but rapes Voula in the back of the truck.
Again, the two desperately run off and are pursued by the police. Orestes,
aware of the danger they are in, rushes to their rescue ?n his motorbike. For all three life is suddenly
transformed into a dream, a dream which ends, however, where the motorbike
does: at a port where the travelling players have gathered together to sell off
their stage costumes. The company breaks up. Orestes, who is still with the
children, goes to a place nearby to sell his motorbike. Voula catches a glimpse
of Orestes going off with the young man who has bought his bike, their hands
touching slightly. Feeling betrayed, Voula no longer knows who she can depend ?n. Orestes sadly waves to the children from the
distance. Voula and Alexander go to the station. Last train, last stop. ? river in the distance marks the border. They jump off
the train and slip into a boat floating downstream. Stop! A yell followed by a
shot breaks the silence. Voula screams. In the beginning was the darkness... She
is afraid. Alexander grasps her hand and continues: ... and the light was
divided from the darkness.
