Ilja finds home
“Ilja Finds Home” is a short film about a woman who has found herself on foreign
soil, again and again.
Ilja often travels to Greece, where she feels she can be herself. But why is that? We
travel with her for 3 days to the island of Syros, where she blends in with the
international crowd of an animation festival, while musing about the concept of
megalomania and the unexpected link it has formed between her and Greece.
Ilja is ill and that makes everything more critical.
Ilja is trapped, wounded, but proud and confident at the same time.
