In the middle of the Aegean Sea, on a luxury yacht, six men on a fishing trip decide to play a game. During this game, things will be compared. Things will be measured. Songs will be butchered, and blood will be tested. Friends will become rivals and rivals will become hungry. But at the end of the voyage, when the game is over, the man who wins will be the best man. And he will wear upon his littlest finger the victorious signet ring: the “Chevalier.”

The odyssey of five children among the 60,000 who were taken away from their homes during the Greek civil war and led to institutions inside and outside of Greece.

On a small island, a saint is about to be canonized by the church. His icon has no face. According to local lore, one night the saint stepped out of the icon, visited the fair and scandalized the believers. He was ashamed of his behavior and never returned. After a disastrous weekend, a writer discovers that a painter had actually been commissioned to paint the portrait of a saint, but that his dissolute way of living led the locals to attribute to the saint the painter’s acts. The islanders resorted to crime, filling in the blanks of the icon. While seeking the truth, the writer dies in a dramatic way. A while later, his corpse is found. It has suffered abuse. A reporter undertakes to cover the story, but is faced with a closed society that refuses to speak.

A post modern theater adaptation of a classic Greek tragedy takes place in a central theater of Athens. Like every night, the audience take their seats and the play begins. Suddenly, the lights on stage go out. A group of young people, dressed in black and carrying guns, come up on stage. They apologize for the interruption and invite people from the audience to participate on stage. The audience is captivated by the ambivalence, still not realizing if this is part of the play or not. The play resumes with a main difference; life imitates art and not vice versa.

In the early 1970s, with Greece under the rule of a military junta, pre-teen Stavros discovers a strange accompaniment to the awakening of eros: he subverts the meanings of classical myths, creating strange physical symptoms in those around him. Stavros’ conservative parents, perplexed and flustered, take him from specialist to specialist. Diagnoses vary, until a fortune-teller deems that the boy is victim of a rare, ancient disease, which exhibits himself when he is in love. After the collapse of the junta, as Stavros meets the toils of love and politics in university, the influence of his strange affliction extends, from his immediate environment into the political arena...

A minefield by Evros River. A platoon of sappers is struggling to clear. Yannis is among them. Gangs transfer refugees, immigrants across the border-river; sometimes the minefield breaks its dark silence. Chryssa who crosses the children, will stumble on Yannis. Challenging death is their common fate. She will be lost. Yannis will stay behind trying to understand what love is, through a miracle.
The basic idea behind ONSLAUGHT is how young people are crushed under the weight of their families on the one hand and on the other by a society characterized by the inhuman goals it sets for success as well as the desire for absolute domination over independent individuals.

GREECE, THE HISTORY BEHIND THE COLLAPSE
by Angelos Abazoglou
How has a country as small as Greece, with a total population of just 11 million, managed to contaminate the whole of the rest of Europe? Today, as the Greek ‘remedy’ starts being applied to the rest of Europe, it is increasingly fascinating to analyse the current phenomena in the light of history (1930 to the present) and understand how one of the European Union’s member-countries reached a state of bankruptcy of such magnitude. The (hi)story is recounted through the eyes of a historian searching for the truth with his anarchist assistant. A hybrid film by the director of “Mustafa’s Sweet Dreams” - Berlinale 2013.

NIMA (Thread) is a fantasy thriller, where one face merges into the next. The thread that connects the worlds of Niki and her son, Lefteris, is a thread of memory, violence and a polemic of hope. Niki is a vibrant, articulate, politically agressive woman. Lefteris is an introverted listless Boy, who inherits a past he did not create or want. A ‘solo’ performance in many respects by The Boy (director, writer, art director, composer) and his actress Sofia Kokkali, NIMA challenges the values of contemporary society, with a unique cinematic visual articulation.

Alki Zei is a great writer but also a woman who had lived the entire history of the second half of the twentieth century. Her life is a great "promenade' through the Greek and European history during the social and political turbulence of the last century. The film is a 'road movie' of memories and a trip through her literary work, appreciated by several generations in Greece and Europe. Main structure of the film is based on Alki's portrait through a "calendar" script, a kind of a "withdrawing" direction of her memories.

At dawn a scavenger starts his working day by the waterfront in Pireaus. He pushes his cart through the harsh streets, as the sun goes up and the air seems to vanish. As he enters Athens, its concrete shell starts to crack revealing in the mild evening a fragile humanity, busy singing, dancing, resisting – an essential counterpoint to the disaster underway…

The New Plastic Road is a character-driven documentary film that reveals the gradual economic and social change underway in the remote, destitute communities in the Pamir Mountains (southeast Tajikistan) and the expansion of China.
An orchestra can be one guitar, a piano, keyboards and a voice. Right? Wrong! One orchestra can be five voices! Five women, a vocal group, trying to survive in the middle of Greek crisis, creating alternative music with women identity. Will they make it?

“Vive la fuite!”, was the life motto of Alexis Akrithakis, the important Greek artist who spent the most prolific period of his artistic career in Berlin. A romantic, unconventional painter, a dreamer with a moving childishness, an impulsive seeker of experiences who identified with the myth of the “damned” artist in the most unpretentious and entirely experiential way.
