Man, Woman, Country, Cinema
By: Dimitris Psachos
A random selection of personal representatives from each country, 1 film each, favorites if you want to call it that will often change the moment I’ve seen enough from any country I’ve neglected regards to my film-watching.
Some countries like ex-Czechoslovakia, ex-Yugoslavia and Great Britain will be taken in account as divided lands.
No top country selections, just an annoying habit of me.
