Greek filmmaker Constantine Giannaris is admired internationally for his lyrical explorations of desire and diaspora set against the backdrop of the modern city. Drawing on documentary modes of filmmaking, he frequently uses non-professional actors to map out the volatile space between cultural difference and sexual transgression. This pair of screenings marks the London premiere of Giannaris' new film Hostage.

Constantine Giannaris will be in conversation with Mark Nash, independent curator and Reader in Fine Art at Central St Martins, after the screening of Hostage on 12 November.

Presented in association with The Kent Institute of Art & Design, MA Artists' Film, Video & Photography and with the support of the Hellenic Foundation for Culture as part of Greece in Britain, a nationwide series of events illustrating the wealth and diversity of contemporary Greek culture.
