Super Demetrios (2011) Review by The_Crys from Greece
I saw the film the night it opened, at the 52nd ThessalonikiInternational Film Festival. The movie is an independent, practicallyzero-budget production: the labor of love of a group of friends who, intheir own words, have a great passion for the art of filmmaking.
The film comes out at a time when the country's much-publicizedpolitical affairs have left its citizens feeling bitter, jaded and in astate of perpetual hopelessness. The fact that festival attendance hasbeen so great this year can only mean one thing: the people are indesperate need of entertainment, of the kind of solace that can only befound in the warm, escapist experience of watching a good film.
How fitting then, that in this year's festival, Thessaloniki enters aparticularly elite club: that of a veritable metropolis with its veryown superhero. Meet Super Demetrios, named after the patron saint ofThessaloniki. Humble, righteous and powerful, he fights for: "[...]Truth, justice and the Greco-Christian ideal."
The film's plot revolves around the most recent strike of one CaptainF.ROM, the hero's archenemy. Tired of being scorned and enraged by thepeople's refusal to recognize him by what he feels is his true name, hedecides to retaliate and it's up to Super Demetrios to save the day.The movie is a humorous, oftentimes exaggerated (as parodies tend tobe), yet very astute critique on practically everything, from past andrecent political scandals, to the economy crisis, the culture of fearpropagated by the media, religion, and even the city's obsession withfast food.
Though the film's main appeal lies within the satire of the Helleniccultural norms, the movie can still entertain foreigners who are notfamiliar with the modern way of life in Greece and Thessaloniki. Anyviewer who has ever seen a superhero movie will surely derive muchamusement from the complete and utter deconstruction of the genre'sclichés.
The movie's two screenings were both sold-out, something trulyremarkable, considering the fact that films by other, far moreaccomplished directors weren't as successful. I'm not quite certainwhat, if anything, this means. Does it prove that film-goers arethirsty for comedies in these dark, uncertain times?
Some may argue that I'm over-thinking what was, after all, a film thatdoesn't take itself too seriously. Even so, leaving the movie theaterthat night, I asked myself just what it is that makes a superhero soappealing to the public. Is it the fact that heroes become thepersonification of justice? Is it the quick, almost magical solutionthey tend to provide to seemingly insurmountable obstacles?
Whatever it is, my personal opinion is that what truly makes a hero, isthe ability to inspire people. Taking that into account, I can't helpbut wonder who the true hero of the film was. Was it Super Demetrios,or the small group of independent filmmakers who proved that a lack offunding is not anathema to artistic vision?
I'll let you decide.
