“The painful passage from being imprisoned in the extortionate dilemmas of familial and sexual relationships to accepting a personal point of view. A narrative constructed on the associative structure of memory and dream.”

The Hours: A Square Film is an autobiographical journey through filmmaker Antoinetta Angelidi's life, navigating pain between moments of exhilaration. The trauma of childhood and adulthood related through fragments, gradually finding oneself through artistic expression. Austere and intimate, a uniquely textured mood piece.

Audience Note: This film contains references to and depiction of sexual abuse

Memory as construction and as internal pulse. Spendo, on the edge of suicide, re-lives her life, re-constructs it and, finally, liberates herself. Sadness flows and fills the space. The hours co-exist and intertwine. The world: a flesh-eating mechanism. A descend begins, a rhythmic immersion into the depths of memory, where the evil appears in the form of good. Until memory no longer repeats itself; a new viewpoint sneaks in. The hours are noiselessly formed anew. Violent dependence is left in the past.
