Don’t Laugh (They’ll See You)

“Don’t Laugh (They’ll See You)” is a dramatic comedy that follows Maria, a woman in her forties, in the first days after she finds out she is pregnant.
Maria, who lives on an island, discovers she is pregnant when she visits her religious sister in Athens for their mother’s memorial service. The unexpected pregnancy at forty and an unexpected encounter make her realize that only by coming to terms with her choices can she “laugh, no matter what the world says.”

Nicholas is a director based in London and Athens. He was born in Athens in 1976 but has lived most of his life in London. Nicholas studied economics at UCL, but after this minor detour, he pursued his dream of directing. Nicholas has directed three feature films in Greece, one of which was the last film of the great Max Von Sydow (Echoes of the Past). He finished shooting a low budget feature “Don’t Laugh (They’ll See You)” (producer Tasos Koronakis & Laika Productions) which is in post production now, and is currently in the development phase of his next feature film, “Shadow on the Mountain” (Tasos Koronakis & Laika Productions), a personal story he has also written. And his latest short film, “Clean Slate” (and his first in French) is doing the festival run. Nicholas also directed the much-loved TV series “Magnificent Creatures”, “Salt of the Earth”, an episode of “I Saw You” and countless commercials. His passion however, remains in films.
