Author Biography
COSTAS ZAPAS: With books in major Greek publishers like "Kanstaniotis" ("Frankenstein [REC]") and "Kedros"("Blue Heart") and his latest film "Frankenstein" sold for world release in 2021 to the LA-based "House of Film, Costas Zapas has also worked with Lars von Trier production company Zentropa that co-financed his film “Minor freedoms". Cineuropa named Costas Zapas as "one of the most outstanding directors of contemporary cinema", The Guardian as "one of the main protagonists of the burgeoning Greek new cinema wave», and Latin America daily Pagina/12 characterizes Zapas as “the most explosive vein of the brilliant new wave of Greek cinema”. “Costas Zapas confronts Greek society with its actual nightmarish actions – the actions that nobody dares to talk about” (I.B.Tauris, Realism in Greek cinema). Zapas’ work is compared to Antonin Artaud, Jonas Mekas in an in-depth analysis by acclaimed Cinema Journal, and with the work of Jack Smith, Russ Meyer, John Waters, Andy Warhol, and the adventurous films of Gregg Araki.
