National Garden

About This Movie

National Garden is an intriguing documentary that takes you into the heart of Athens’ green oasis. The filmmaker spends a year observing various characters who, drawn by the garden's tranquility, find solace amidst the city's chaos. It's not just about plants and paths; it’s about the lives and stories woven into this serene setting. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing you to soak in the atmosphere, almost like you're wandering through the garden yourself. The practical effects are all natural, of course, with sunlight filtering through leaves and the subtle sounds of nature emphasizing a kind of meditative experience. Each character adds a unique layer, revealing how a simple space can hold profound meaning. Definitely distinctive in its approach to storytelling.
