Sounds Like:"...FROM THE EDGE OF THE CITY bristles with an energy and passion intensified by Akis Daoutis' driving hard-rock score. Constantine Giannaris has made sharp and fresh a story both timeless and universal..." Kevin Thomas,Los Angeles Times ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................ "Pitched somewhere between TRAINSPOTTING and HATE, and with a pulsating hard-rock-tinged score by Akis Daoutis, the movie abounds in zip-pans, horizontal wipes, aggressively heightened sound and other technical trickery to suggest lives spiraling out of control. Gripping and intense!" Philip Kemp, Variety..................................................... ............................................................ ............................................................ ..........................One Day In August ... Akis Daoutis' religioso music does its best in the latter stages to give a redemptive flavor to the stories...
