Museum of the Moving Image invites you to a press screening of one of the year's most exciting avant-garde film events. Visionary filmmaker and American expatriate Gregory Markopoulos (1928-1992) devoted his last twenty years to Eniaios, an eighty-hour meditation on the essence of cinema, embodied in an intricate fusion of Greek myth, portraiture, and landscape. The film was designed to be shown only in its entirety during special screenings of its twenty-two cycles, or 'orders,' in a carefully chosen site outside the Peloponnesian village of Lyssaria.
