On Xerxes’ Throne
Alternative title: Ston throno tou Xerxi

In a dystopian workplace where physical contact is banned, interactions are simulated, transforming the environment into a charged landscape of alienation and unconventional sensuality.

On Xerxes’ Throne is a striking Greek short film set inside a shipyard where workers, surveillance and desire exist in the same controlled industrial space. Evi Kalogiropoulou uses choreography, colour and architecture with remarkable confidence, creating something both sensual and political. Its visual language gives the film a futuristic edge without losing the human tension underneath.
