Dir. Georgis Grigorakis. 2021, 101 mins. In Greek with English subtitles. With Vangelis Mourikis, Argyris Pandazaras, Sofia Kokkali. A reclusive farmer in the lush backwoods of Northern Greece battles a giant mining corporation that is digging up the forest and threatening his property. But the greatest threat comes with the unexpected arrival of his estranged son, who appears after a 20-year separation to claim the family land. Greece's submission for Oscar consideration as Best International Feature, Digger was the winner of ten 2021 Hellenic Film Academy Awards, including Best Feature Film, Best Director, and Best Actor (Mourikis).
