synopsis:

Synopsis
'A Death in Kogarah' is a surreal journey into the inner
world of a frail old man, Simon Smith, who is devastated by
the suicide of his grandson Nink, a teenage graffiti artist.
Nink was the only connecting link for him with the 'living
world'. Everything is dying around him - his suburb, his
memory, and his friends. He is trying hard to keep alive in
this dying world by imagining the presence of a young Greek
woman from his past, Alexia.
