Director Statement

My relationship with cinema started at an early age. I still remember myself on summer family vacations, in various places in Greece, looking for the local summer cinema. When kids of my age couldn't wait to get together to play hide-and-seek, chase, darts, I was trying to convince my father to accompany me to the movie I wanted to see. And he did, without resenting it. Before every film, my father used to talk to me about the need of the creator to tell a story. And that's how I came to love the stories and their creators.
