Athina Rachel Tsangari On Her Emotional Return To Greece With ‘Harvest’ & Plans For Her Next Feature, A “Screwball Heist Set In The Near Future” — Thessaloniki

Thessaloniki Film Festival runs until November 10.

Unlike most late fall festivals Thessaloniki in Northern Greece regularly draws packed crowds of passionate and youthful patrons, largely thanks to the city’s significant student population. Set over seven hallucinatory days, Harvest tells the story of a rural village community with no name, in an undefined time and place, that begins to break at the seams after the arrival of four strangers. Joslyn and I worked remotely on the script for a while and then she gave me her blessing once I started casting at which point the story began to change because I adapt according to specific characters and who will embody them.
