L'Enlèvement de Perséphone (grec moderne : Αρπαγή της Περσεφόνης, Arpayi tis Persephonis) est un film grec, comédie néoréaliste, réalisé par Grigóris Grigoríou et sorti en 1956.

Le film a été tourné dans un petit village de l'Attique. Très vite, Grigoríou s'est rendu compte qu'il ne pourrait suivre son scénario à la lettre. Il a alors « laissé » tourner la caméra, enregistrant ainsi la vie quotidienne d'un village grec des années 1950.

Synopsis

Deux villages de montagne se battent pour le contrôle d'une source. Panochori (littéralement le village d'en haut) a de l'eau mais pas de terres fertiles ; Katochori (littéralement le village d'en bas) a des terres fertiles, mais pas d'eau. Un jeune agronome, Ploutona, originaire de Panochori, revient dans son village. Il est l'instrument de la réconciliation grâce à son amour (réciproque) pour Perséphone, la fille de Madame Démeter, la plus riche propriétaire terrienne de Katochori.

The main plot unfolds in a mountainous village somewhere in Arcadia (the movie was filmed in Stemnitsa, Dimitsana and the surrounding areas) shortly after Metapolitefsi. The unveiling of a monument during the Occupation stirred up the topic course, mainly omitting the name Christos Kannavos who was killed along with other villagers in the area. The other's were all consecrated as heroes except for Christos as his views were labelled Communist regardless if they were according to theory. Periklis (V. Diamantopoulos), a conservative high school teacher of Ancient Greek and Latin with a forwarding (out of fear) towards the recently fallen dictatorship (news and in turn habits take a while to reach remote areas at the time), came to clash with his wife Elpida (A. Matzourani, a teacher of Modern Greek & Literature), even with his two sons Sokratis (N. Kalogeropoulos) and Dimosthenis (K. Tsakonas) (Stepsons to Elpida) which defends Chrysanthi's selfishness (Eirini Kazakou) and her family to put a crown in memory of Kannavos.
