In a post-COVID-19 world, ruminating upon memories seems like an everyday occasion—reflecting on the ways that that civilization functioned before the impact of an unforeseen global pandemic that robbed the globe of its perceived normality. Therefore, whether it takes the form of Steven Soderbergh’s bureaucratic procedural “Contagion” or Trey Edward Shults’ soul-crushing horror-thriller “It Comes at Night,” films that dive into the personal effects of worldwide diseases have adopted a renewed resonance over the past year. Similarly, Christos Nikou’s debut feature “Apples” could not have been released at a more perfect time, which, despite its timely unveiling, harbors an endearing timeless quality to its rumination on identity, memory, and rebirth.
