Yorgos Avgeropoulos interview with ERT News on Mankind's Folly
“In Yorgos Avgeropoulos’ new film, permafrost is the past that returns to take revenge on us.
Beneath the melting ice, the traces of a hubris thousands of years old begin to emerge. Mankind’s Folly by Yorgos Avgeropoulos, which was released in cinemas on January 15, is not merely a documentary about climate change, but a warning.”
Giota Kotseta writes “Avgeropoulos has been making documentaries ‘forever’, by which I mean that he knows how to place one line of reasoning on top of another, how to construct his narratives, how to choose his frames, how to build stories that can sustain research and testimony. Here, then, he allows his camera, and our gaze along with it, to spread out across the endless expanses of Siberia, to examine the houses that sink a few centimeters every year, to walk along coastlines that “spew up” the bones of prehistoric mammoths, to wander through cemeteries with the uncanny image of graves sinking into the ground.”
