‘The trap’ is a documentary film about the restitution of disabled/handicapped people. A glance at psychiatric institutions (operating as storehouses of human beings) and endangered guest houses. All that during Christmas time in Athens of 2008. Our hero Dionysus is 34 years old and lives with his mother. He is quadriplegic and suffers from a slight mental retardation. He loves Sunday ‘strolls’, singing, talking on the phone and secretly drinking coca cola. His future is uncertain. In his own words: ‘Today’s society is a very tough place to live. OK, our parents will eventually go but what is there left to see for us children?’
