5 WAYS 2 DIE

How many ways are there to commit suicide? Can a suicide attempt be considered “successful”? Makis over-analyses this subject, struggling to achieve the most ideal result. Director's statement: "5 Ways 2 Die" is a socio-political allegory about a country's governmental system based on fake appearances (wearing masks). Makis, our anti-hero, is looking for a way to end his misery in a household based on lies and pretentious appearances. Corruption is inevitable when the rules and laws do nothing to prevent it. In such cases the lines distinguishing the sinner from the victim are blurred- inexistent.
