The award-winning Greek director Periklis Hoursoglou takes us to a journey through time as his debut film’s script emerged in a time of 16 years, since he was 12 years old, until he reached 28 and made the film. He also discusses with the producer Anna Maria Aslanoglu about the similarities and differences in making a film in the 1990s compared to today.

The event will take place at the Pera Museum Auditorium as part of the Greek Film Days. Free admissions. The event will be held in Greek with Turkish consecutive translation. Limited space, drop in, no reservations.
