Two-time Emmy Winner Minos Papas on Psychological Horror in "Motherwitch"

Two-time Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Minos Papas joins us fresh from the world premiere of his newest masterpiece, Motherwitch. Known for his atmospheric, character-driven narratives, Minos explores the chilling intersection of ancient Greek myth and the uncanny. In this episode, we go behind the scenes of his sold-out screenings at the International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR) to discuss: Cypriot Gothic Folklore: The haunting origins of the Kalikantzari (Christmas goblins) and the superstitions of 19th-century Cyprus. The Art of Survival: How he uses "dark fairy tales" to map universal themes of grief, trauma, and the eternal cycle of life and rebirth. Whether you're an indie film fan or a lover of psychological horror, this conversation with a globally acclaimed visionary is not to be missed.   Connect with the Guest: Follow Minos Papas: @cyprianfilms Official Film Website: Motherwitch at IFFR Production Company: @carettafilms
