OPEN LETTER

The poster is a graphic creation with inset pictures (collage) of representative scenes from the film, from the time of Greek neo-realism. In the middle of the poster, the largest, rectangular black-and-white photograph is placed, depicting a love scene between Betty Arvaniti and Nikiforos Naneris. Above it, a small photograph is placed, portraying six children in a trench. On the left, next to these two photographs, a third is added, depicting a German Vermacht soldier offering a small child a bar of chocolate. Below these three pictures, the title of the film reads: “OPEN LETTER” in black letters, underlined by a pinkish-purple line, on an olive-green background. Below, in black letters: “LOCARNO FESTIVAL AWARD”. Further left and next to the film’s title, the crew of the film is recorded: “Photography Walter Lassaly (Photography Oscar), Music Nikos Mamagkakis, Production G. Stampoulopoulos STUDIO ALFA, Copyright A. Sylas & Son. The right part of the poster features the sketch of a man with a heavy coat. Right next to it appears the photographic portrait of the heroine, Eleni Theofilou, and below the rest of the film’s actors are listed in big, purplish-pink, capital letters: “Nikiforos Naneris, Betty Arvaniti, Eleni Theofilou”, while in smaller letters: “Dimitra Zeza, Spyros Olympios, Betty Valassi, P. Christoforidis, Errikos Kontarinis, Rena Voutsina”. The upper part of the poster reads: “Fragments of pure truth. A bold creation by George Stampoulopoulos”. A balanced composition in three colours, which showcases the dramatic character of the film using photographs of scenes from the film and the drawing of the body of a slim man, who, while troubled, brings his hand before his chest, holding his coat. The photographic inset (collage) and the big, bold, underlined letters, suggest the film’s message: OPEN LETTER.
