<i>The Dazzling Feature Debut of VFX Artist Konstatinos Koutsoliotas (Guardians of the Galaxy, 300), the Festival Award-Winner Will Have a Limited Release, Followed by Home Entertainment/<br />Digital Channels.<br /><a name='more'></a><br />IndiePix Films announced that it has acquired <a href="http://www.winter-thefilm.com/">THE WINTER</a>, a stunningly original Greek fantasy drama, the feature-length debut of talented visual effects artist <a href="https://vimeo.com/melancholystar">Konstatinos Koutsoliotas</a>. Influenced by the works of Poe and Lovecraft, the film will initially have a release in 2015/2016, followed by release to the home entertainment marketplace, via DVD and digital channels. The domestic distribution agreement was negotiated by Jordan Mattos, Director of Programming and Acquisitons at IndiePix and Timothy O’Brien, President of sales agent, Oration Films at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival.<br /><br />THE WINTER is the story of an impoverished writer, Niko (Theo Albanis) who leaves London for his family home in the Greek mountain town of Siatista. Upon arriving, he discovers the home has been abandoned and is now haunted by the ghosts of the past. Working to retain his grasp on reality, Niko sets about to uncover the mystery of his father’s death in this poignant, fantastical drama blended with a touch of magical realism.<br /><br />“The Winter is a great example of Indiepix’s continued efforts to bring rare features from abroad to diverse audiences,” said Mattos “Visual FX artist-turned director Konstantinos Koutsoliotas frames issues of family and memory through a prism of visually captivating and unforgettable imagery, and we’re excited to bring his first feature to the US.”<br /><br />“Indiepix seemed the perfect fit for this beautiful and unusual film and we’re really thrilled to have completed the deal on the eve of our first Toronto,” said Oration chief O’Brien. “We moved Oration into sales, feeling there was a place on the world for truly independent and beautiful films no matter where they came from and this is an affirmation of that goal.”<br /><br />Produced by UK-based Melancholy Star and co-producer Inkas Films, THE WINTER, in Greek with some English, originally premiered at the 54th Thessaloniki International Film Festival in two sold out screenings. It would go on to great acclaim at Greek Film Festivals around the globe such as the <a href="http://nycgreekfilmfestival.com/">NYC Greek Film Festival </a>– where it made its US Premiere – to this year’s <a href="http://grfilm.com/">San Francisco Greek Film Festival</a>; it also had a theatrical release in Greece in 2014. The film was nominated for a Méliès d’Argent Best Fantasic Feature Film at the 2015 <a href="http://www.imaginefilmfestival.nl/en">Imagine: Amsterdam Fantastic Film Festival</a> and will screen at this year’s <a href="http://cthulhucon.com/hplfilmfestival-portland-or/films">H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival</a> in Portland, Oregon in October.</i></div>

<i>About the film:</i></div>
<div>
<i>Pursued by debt collectors, failed Greek writer Niko flees his temporary London homebase around Christmas time. He returns to the village where his father spent his last years alone. In the ruins of his father’s house, childhood memories arise. As does the question of how Niko’s father died. An old neighbour and the local priest urge Niko to leave as soon as possible: there’s something odd about that house. Are they right, and are dark forces gradually starting to cloud Niko’s view on reality?</i><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgP0RdI16r1Ob2C87uuIQtUDzjGyVjXgg99tfP_d-Crgj0VvXAae1ninXHEgEqhkiZeKH_SvU2IoTWETiMfD569Y4kliIF1ob99Y-I3dSXAAV4nJ8XDXrmdEnq9fJCHqtUJGcR_4lKnMGo/s1600/10405394_944938058880446_6744574775236563399_n-1.png" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgP0RdI16r1Ob2C87uuIQtUDzjGyVjXgg99tfP_d-Crgj0VvXAae1ninXHEgEqhkiZeKH_SvU2IoTWETiMfD569Y4kliIF1ob99Y-I3dSXAAV4nJ8XDXrmdEnq9fJCHqtUJGcR_4lKnMGo/s1600/10405394_944938058880446_6744574775236563399_n-1.png" /></a></div>
<div>
<br />What the festival says: Smoothly alternating between psychological drama, tragicomedy, horror and fairy-tale, first-time director Koutsoliotas takes his time leading us into Niko’s world and mind. He uses animation for this, but also simple, often old school special effects. Remarkable for someone who worked on the visual effects teams of 300 and Guardians of the Galaxy. It is, however, a simplicity that perfectly complements Niko’s intimate story, leading the viewer through a thematically labyrinthine hall of mirrors. Enjoying the journey is more important than finding the exit.</div>

Overview:<br />
Achtervolgd door schuldeisers ontvlucht de gesjeesde Griekse schrijver Niko tegen de kerstdagen zijn tijdelijke standplaats Londen. Hij keert terug naar het dorpje waar zijn vader in diens laatste jaren alleen woonde. In de ruïne van zijn vaders huis komen jeugdherinneringen boven. Ook rijst de vraag hoe Niko's vader aan diens einde is gekomen. Een oude buurvrouw en de plaatselijke priester drukken Niko op het hart zo snel mogelijk te vertrekken: het is niet pluis in dat huis. Hebben ze gelijk en beginnen duistere krachten langzaam maar zeker Niko's kijk op de realiteit te vertroebelen?<br />
<br />
Soepel schakelend tussen psychologisch drama, tragikomedie, horror en sprookje, neemt debuterend regisseur Koutsoliotas de tijd om ons de wereld en het hoofd van Niko binnen te voeren. Daarbij zet hij animatie in, maar ook simpele, vaak old school special effects. Dat is opmerkelijk voor iemand die werkte in het visual effects-team van 300 en Guardians of the Galaxy. Het is evenwel een eenvoud die naadloos aansluit bij het intieme verhaal van Niko, dat de kijker thematisch door een waar labyrintisch spiegelpaleis voert. Belangrijker dan het vinden van de uitgang is het genieten van de dwaaltocht zelf.<br />

<i>"The Winter </i>is a visual masterpiece! So entrenched in the visual aspect of the film, I viewed it 2 more times to capture all of what the film has to offer. There’s so much to experience.<i> The Winter’s </i>richly layered aesthetics are met with a simplicity in storytelling. Niko’s haunting story is expressed mostly through his moment to moment experiences, with dialogue minimally added as support. We are able to explore this film from our own perception of what Niko’s managing internally and externally, and every moment feels meaningful.<br /><br />Niko (Theo Albanis) is a young Greek writer living in London. Escaping financial troubles and following his romanticized ideals, he hides out in his father’s abandoned home in the Greek mountain town of Siatista. As he uncovers the mystery of his father’s (Vangelis Mourikis) death, Niko’s own grasp on reality quickly declines. How could it not. His life in this old, run-down home is anything but solitary as more malice occupants hang around. The lines are frequently blurred as to what Niko is truly discovering and what’s a result of his own dance with darkness. Theo (Albanis) masterfully portrays Niko. His debut performance is impressive, capturing the essence of Niko’s turmoil. Efi Papatheodorou’s portrayal of Niko’s nosy neighbor, Philio, adds warmth and gentleness to the film. I especially enjoyed the lightness in Philio’s banter with Niko.<br /><br />This film is dark and chilling, yet soft and beautiful. The fantasy dream sequences are stunning and the creatures that pay Niko a visit in his nightmares are utterly haunting. I was relieved for Niko as daylight broke each morning. One of the more unique features in the film is the animation of the bedtime story Niko’s father share’s with Niko as a young boy. The scene, inspired by traditional Greek shadow puppets, adds even more texture to the film. Every scene in <i>The Winter </i>is magically woven together. This story is so well presented, to watch it only once is an injustice to the film, and to the movie-goer. When the moment presents itself for you to see the film, do yourself a favor and jump at it."</div>
