The cinematographic masterpiece of Dimitris Athanitis

The masterpiece No Sympathy for the Devil of Dimitris Athanitis is an allegorical dystopia of love and death with a truly "infernal" performance by Lena Kitsopoulou, which secured her the Best Actress Award at the Thessaloniki IFF. Panagiotis Bougias
Dimitri Athanitis is a unique presence in Greek cinema: he began with a personal stamp, Addio Berlin and No Sympathy for the Devil, refining the postmodern and rock expression in a "end of the century" melancholy.

A film like a dream
J. M.Melentz,Sevilla
One of those films that have an authentic and poetic soul. Anthi Drilloni
Dimitri Athanitis's take on the "Orpheus and Eurydice" myth is stylish and sexy. Lena Kitsipoulou is totally magnetic for her fellow characters and the viewer. Vimeo editor's choice
Extremely romantic story given in a tough, unusual way.
G. Kanakis, 01 Magazine
No Sympathy for the Devil is the film which has well and truly polarized opinions. A semi-futuristic “romance of extremes” this international competition entry has turned out to be the Thessaloniki Film Festival love-it-or-hate-it.

From the first Fridays of autumn, glassy gazes seize the city. A ruthless expectation for something. Somewhere there, the laughter tries to improvise, but disappears as a traitor. No Sympathy for the Devil (1997). Saying yes to the awakening of the dream. Nikos Kourmoulis 10/2016
