Our take

In Georgis Grigorakis’ contemporary neo-western Digger, the muddy woodlands of Northern Greece make for quietly unnerving territory. Family tensions are layered within wider power structures and environmental concerns in this subdued but potent tale of resistance, produced by Athina Rachel Tsangari.
