A HUC Screening of Murderess: A Cinematic Adaptation of Papadiamantis' Haunting Masterpiece

About the movie: 

Step into the hauntingly beautiful yet tragic world of Murderess, a gripping film adaptation of Alexandros Papadiamantis’ literary classic The Murderess. Set on the rugged landscape of 19th-century Greece, this powerful film brings to life the story of Hadoula, an impoverished yet fiercely intelligent woman whose desperate circumstances lead her to question fate, justice, and the weight of societal oppression.

Blurring the lines between victim and perpetrator, Murderess is both a psychological thriller and a poignant social critique, exploring the harsh realities of gender, poverty, and morality. As Hadoula takes matters into her own hands, the film invites audiences into an unforgettable journey of survival, guilt, and redemption.

With breathtaking cinematography, an evocative score, and a powerhouse performance at its core, Murderess captures the timeless relevance of Papadiamantis’ novel, offering a deeply emotional and thought-provoking cinematic experience.
