A STORY THROUGH IMAGES: THE GREEK FILM ARCHIVE IN FOCUS

An evocation of the history of the Greek Film Archive through a selection of key films made between 1924 and 2012. It mirrors the development of the Archive, from its creation by a small group of enthusiasts in the 1950s to its recognition as the official film heritage institution of Greece, despite the lack of a consistent State policy.

Toutes les séances du 23 au 28 mars seront présentées par Maria Komninos (directrice de la programmation de la Cinémathèque de Grèce)
