Apples

In Christos Nikou’s inspired, ultimately moving comedy-drama, a man appears to succumb to a condition affecting the whole world.

In an alternate reality not too distant from our present state, a strange virus has stricken the world; for some unknown reason, people are randomly afflicted with amnesia. And for the unlucky few who have no family and are found lacking any ID, they are forced to start life anew in a state-sponsored programme. It’s what happens to Aris, who awakens on a bus with no idea who he is or where he lives. Given new accommodation, he is charged with a series of tasks that allowed him to build up a new set of memories, with doctors checking in on his progress.

Join us on Friday 21 May for a prerecorded Q&A featuring the director, Christos Nikou following the 6:10pm showing of Apples at Bloomsbury, Soho and Oxford.
