All that devouring beauty
The Athonite Epitaph ritual, unique to Skiathos and Mount Athos, is a spiritual experience that illuminates the soul, just as candles light the ‘holy Epitaph.’ In spring, the entire island witnesses the profound beauty of the Holy Suffering in a deeply moving celebration.
Memories of Occupation and Dialogue for the Future
The German-Greek cultural association “Dialogos” has facilitated a student exchange program between German and Greek schools, fostering dialogue and understanding. The documentary “Memories from the Occupation and Dialogue for the Future” explores this initiative, the tragic events of the German occupation, and the experiences of students and teachers.
Yani Spanos: A Life Behind the Marquee
A discovery of the incredible musical journey of the great Greek composer Yani Spanos (Γιάννης Σπανός), setting off from
small-town Kiato to major collaborations in Paris, and ultimately his huge success in Greece. With rare documents and interviews and through the eyes of a devoted fan, we explore why
Spanos chose to stay behind the scenes, letting his music steal the spotlight.
