According to Variety: Christos Nikou couldn?t have anticipated the almost unrecognizable world into which he would be releasing his debut feature, ?Apples,? but it?s a testament to the strength of this lonely and aloof tragicomedy?s central allegory that it adapts so well to our pear-shaped times. What might have been the latest oddity of the Greek Weird Wave ? or else a surreal collection of live-action ?The Far Side? cartoons ? instead feels soulfully relevant as reality aligns with the speculative world Nikou imagined. It tickles the imagination, inviting us to consider the prospect of being given a new beginning, and whether starting from scratch would be such a terrible thing".
