Sotiria
An intimate psychological feature where a couple’s retreat into the mountains becomes a confrontation with love, fear, and the unstable boundary between reality and the subconscious.
Project overview.
Sotiria is an intimate psychological feature centered on an ordinary city couple who travel to a remote mountain village for a holiday, compelled by reasons they cannot fully understand. As a series of unsettling and paranormal events unfolds, the trip becomes a confrontation with the deadlock of their relationship and the truths they have buried within themselves.
Pushed toward extreme choices, they move closer to the edges of reason, where reality begins to give way to the subconscious. The film holds to a disciplined tone, a compact emotional frame, and an authored visual approach shaped around psychological pressure.
