O Thiasos

You board a touring theatre company in 1939 Greece staging the same play across changing borders. Then politics seep into rehearsals and bullets replace applause. The director watches his company fracture against the march of decades. Angelopoulos frames history drifting through ordinary scenes until the troupe itself becomes a vanishing nation.
