Exile (Greek: "Εξορία") is a 2019 Greek feature film, directed by the Greek director, writer and producer Vassilis Mazomenos.
Plot
The film refers to the next day of the Greek financial crisis, when Aris, a desperate man, attempts to leave Greece with an almost wrecked boat. After being rescued from certain drowning by some Coast Guard men, he returns as a foreigner to his own ruined country. There he experiences every kind of “sin” and extreme as an outcast of the system. He steals; he becomes a slave and kills. He tries, willingly, to survive off the beaten track. This is like the story of a modern Ulysses.

Reviews
Élie Castiel wrote in kinoculturemontreal "Vassilis Mazomemos plays hide-and-seek with the viewer, leading him into universes that often border on the grand-guignolesque, the serious, the dramatic, the incomprehensible, sometimes administering doses of camp humor that some will like to Enjoy." Ninos Mikelides wrote in enetpress " What Mazomenos seeks, and ultimately succeeds in, in this film, is to present the various ways of exploiting and humiliating the exiled Greek, as the title of the film puts it, in his own country, Greece. Exiled in a country where Greek has become a second language, with others around him (with a few exceptions) speaking English." Stratos Kersanidis wrote in kokkino "Mazomenos from the beginning reverses the situation. The man that is leaving is a Greek because life in Greece has become unbearable, everything has collapsed, moral values do not exist, the social fabric has been irreversibly broken. Something very important, that even our place can be an exile. How exile is everywhere, even within us. And in a nightmare-like environment, we look for our place, our lost identity, our own selves." Leda Galanou wrote in flix "Vasilis Mazomenos' universe is here again, in a more ambitious, transcendent film, but with all the familiar features of the director: political discourse, humanitarian agitation, sensational dramatics. Exile has to be seen from the opposite side of the mirror (of modern Greek society)".

Shannon Dorey (born 1955) is a Canadian author best known for her research on the African Dogon people. She is a graduate of Trent University in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada where she graduated with a combined English and History degree. Her interests were expanded into religious studies after studying the New Testament at the University of Windsor in 1991.

Dorey has written three books analyzing the symbols found in the Dogon religion based on the work of ethnographers Marcel Griaule and Germaine Dieterlen. In The Master of Speech, published in 2002, Dorey analyzes the information which Griaule recorded in the light of scientific advances which have taken place in the last fifty or sixty years. In The Nummo, published in 2004, Dorey hypothesizes that the Dogon religion is an extremely ancient oral tradition with traces of it being found in most ancient religions of the world. In Day of the Fish, published in 2012, she compares the Nummo, described by the Dogon elder Ogotemmêli, to the goddesses of the Neolithic period as defined by the Lithuanian-American archeologist, Marija Gimbutas.
In 2010 Dorey wrote a popular article for New Dawn magazine comparing the Australian Rainbow Serpent to the Dogon Nummo, who were also described as being rainbow serpents.
