Exit Medea envisions the Greek myth of Medea as a horror road movie.
Torn between loyalty to her family, and her love for Jason, Medea attacks her father and flees with Jason to unknown lands. Her brother pursues them. When Jason betrays and abandons her, she is driven to the ultimate act of vengeful destruction.
In this high-risk piece, Director Tony Paraskeva presents a beautiful collage of poetic language, images and genres, where action takes place in a pre-rational, mythic dreamscape of ritual, violence and blood sacrifice.
Filled with extraordinary performances, crisp cinematography and high-concept, this is a must for those wanting to explore exciting cinematic voices alive with passion and purpose.
