REVIEWS

  • CELL ZERO is a warm, youthful and densely-woven film, a human drama that brings tears to the eyes.
    Maria Papadopoulou, Ta Nea, 26 September 1975
  • … This is another step forward for the role of the Greek cinema, created by a young director who knows how to put great humanity and gentleness into his work.
