Greece 2015, D: Lydia Konsta, 75 Min, Greek with German subtitles

This film approaches the wounds left behind by the German occupation of Greece, with a new set of eyes. Lydia Konsta interviews a German Wehrmacht radio operator, who was situated in Greece and kept a journal. Greek and German artists are simultaneously inspired to create through their meetings with the survivors of those events in Greece. Their testimonials are overwhelming. Still today we fight to manage the trauma of freak, loss and guilt of that time.

Can art contribute to face the trauma? This film leaves the answer to the viewer.
