Xoanon is a film that raises a sea of questions about spirituality, belief systems, religious myths and, last but not least, the eternal sleep. A compilation of improvised scenes and rituals that reflect mankind’s need to understand the universe and praise someone for its creation. In Xoanon we come across both official and alternative belief systems and practices, we meet a woman who complains about the commodification of rituals in our time, UFOs are being given a chance and a preacher sees God in every little cloud. In addition, magic potions, dark visions and hints about us not being alone in this universe are omnipresent. In any case, as the narrator Takis Moschos claims, it’s the spectator’s job to discover the truth.
