Medea (1969)

“Medea gathers all my important relatives and friends. Above all my daughter Alida as a child when they found out she had diabetes while she was hospitalised. It was my feeling of being a bad mother and a transmitter of hereditary that made me name the film Medea. All of the characters somehow transmit the inner pains of birth, body and life in a symbolic way” – Pia Epremian
