Bloko (grec moderne : Mπλόκο) est un film grec réalisé par Ado Kyrou et sorti en 1965.

Auteur de l'ouvrage Le Surréalisme au cinéma, Ado Kyrou réalise un film dépouillé, réaliste et brechtien. Le film est un désastre public. Les spectateurs n'accrochent pas à cette façon de présenter l'histoire, plus habitués à un traitement émotionnel.

Synopsis

En août 1944, à Kokkinia, un quartier de la banlieue rouge d'Athènes, un commerçant enrichi par le marché noir célèbre ses noces. Le même jour, les Allemands encerclent le quartier, rassemblent tous les hommes sur la place centrale et les exécutent pour tenter de mettre fin à la résistance.

Approximately 2,500 years ago, the Athenian tragedians -- Sophocles, Aeschylus, Euripides -- said it all in the most eloquent and poetic terms. Everyone else has followed in their footsteps, from Goethe and Shakespeare to Mann and Beckett. More than ever, the ancient tragedies are relevant today, for their subject matter is the universal nature of man: his hunger for domination, his greed and his lust. The plays are the confirmation of the human tragedy for all times and all places. The Greek myths upon which these tragedies are based combine marvelous storytelling with symbolic associations that are the foundations of the collective unconscious of our modern world.
