Thessaloniki Agora Awards: ‘African Grey’ By Greek Filmmaker Yorgos Goussis Among Top Winners — Full List


Thessaloniki Film Festival ends on Sunday.

A committee headed by Simos Papanas, Artistic Director of the Thessaloniki State Symphony Orchestra, and comprised by Antonis Sousamoglou and Miltos Logiadis grant a unique award, giving the opportunity to a young composer among the participants to record their next cinematic work with the TSSO. This emerging producer’s strong motivation, energy and determination, has convinced us that he will make the most out of this opportunity for international exposure albeit operating from the fringes of the Greek periphery as he is based on the wonderful island of Lesvos…” The reasoning: “The presentation and clips we saw convinced us that this film can offer romance, suspense, quirky humor and, above all, a playful glimpse behind the scenes of the traditional martial arts world.”
