‘Bearcave’ Offers ‘Unseen Perspective’ Into Lives of Young Queer Women in Rural Greece
'Bearcave' is a queer romantic adventure story about the burgeoning love affair between two childhood friends living in a mountain village in Greece.
A mystical cave, a nettle pie and an unexpected betrayal spur a romantic adventure between two childhood friends in “Bearcave,” the feature-length debut of co-writers and -directors Stergios Dinopoulos and Krysianna Papadakis. The film follows Argiro (Kyriazi), described by the filmmakers as a “badass farmer,” and her best friend Anneta (Oikonomaki), a manicurist and local “It” girl living in a remote mountain village in northern Greece. It also came about at a pivotal moment in the filmmakers’ lives, with Papadakis “slowly moving back [to Greece] with no real long-term planning,” and Dinopoulos eyeing a return to the U.S. to attend graduate school.
