Movie Story

In this hybrid first person account, a Greek islander opens up to his filmmaker granddaughter about his violent coming-of-age as refugee, warrior and political prisoner in North Africa during WWII. Young Nikolaos Plakas fled starvation from the Greek island of Ikaria. He survived from refugee camps and a deadly shipwreck, in order to fight against the Germans in North Africa and to be later imprisoned for his antiroyalist political views in military concentration camps. A first-person narrative, in Ikaria’s local dialect, interrupted by fragments of war footage and home movie imagery.
