| Brief Description: | Acclaimed as an "extraordinary and devastatingly powerful film,"
Attila 74 confronts the real-life tragedy of the Turkish invasion of
Cyprus in 1974. The film "is history in the making. Remarkably,
Cacoyannis manages to sustain at once a passionate engagement and a
wide historical view--perhaps because he is seeing events always in
terms of people" (Times of London). The film, wrote the L.A. Times,
"is at once a deeply personal record and a formal work of art with a
structure and a tragic sense of the inevitable, worthy of Euripides."
