Desc: Dowsing the Past: Materialities of Civil War Memories: Directed by Konstantinos Kalantzis. With Konstantinos Kalantzis, Vassilis Mamaloudis, Christos Manoloudis, Leonidas Papafotiou. 'Dowsing the Past' is an ethnographic film about memory and material culture in Thessaly, Greece. It is centered on a journey undertaken by two local men, along with an anthropologist, and two cinematographers. The men drove from the plain of Thessaly to the 'National Resistance Museum' in Rentina, hoping to find anything related to the biographies of the local men's siblings, who were lost during the Greek Civil War. The film explores indigenous geographies of imagination, ant he complex entanglements between browsing the landscape, and remembering local and global histories. 'Dowsing the Past' also investigates the dynamics of the ethnographic encounter, that emerged in the meeting between an anthropologist, two cinematographers from Athens and senior local men in Thessaly.
