Eptapyrgion. A rebel ballad(2015)
Eptapyrgion is a monument at the top of Thessaloniki hills, in Greece.
Its story is quite complex, it starts from the Ottoman age and reaches our contemporary time. I focused my story in a specific timeline: the year of Military Dictatorship in Greece and Fascist Regime of Metaxtas.
The building used to be a prison for antifascist opponents. I wanted to celebrate their memory and their effort for freedom.
The documentary has been produced by United Societies of Balkans (USB), an NGO based in Thessaloniki
