My Grandfather Papaflessas

A tender look at the hero of the Greek Revolution of 1821. Papaflessas traveled to Constantinople in the age of Enlightenment and romanticism, and became a member of the revolutionary organization “Filiki Eteria” (Society of Friends), taking on the task of inciting his compatriots against the Ottoman Empire. What sets the heroes apart? Do they have mitigating factors?

Behind the Curtain

Antonis lives alone in his family's beach house, hiding away from the world. He has given up on life and is literally watching the world pass him by. It has been left up to his best friends - two offbeat cupids - to remind him that there are things to live for.
