Afterlov

About This Movie

Afterlov is a quirky exploration of love and regret set against the sun-soaked backdrop of Athens. The film captures this languid summer vibe beautifully—Nikos, a musician with zero prospects, is stuck in a villa, nursing his wounds from a breakup. The pacing is a deliberate meander, getting you into Nikos' headspace, as he invites his ex, Sofia, to confront their past. The performances are raw and relatable, particularly the chemistry between the leads. It’s not loaded with grand gestures or dramatic twists; instead, it’s about the little moments and the awkwardness of rekindling old flames. The practical effects are minimal, but the setting carries so much weight, adding to the intimate, almost claustrophobic atmosphere of unresolved feelings.
