Giannis In The Cities

In 1949, Giannis, the son of a rebel, is six years old when he is torn from his natural environment and deported to the Childcare Cities, educational camps set up during the Greek Civil War, a world where ideas and desires are manipulated. His dreams turn into nightmares, and a dark feeling for his father slowly inhabits his heart. It’s only as an adult that he manages to redefine his existence and decides to go and meet his father…The true story of writer Giannis Atzakas.

Presented by Aris Anagnos Charitable Trust
