FILMS IN DEVELOPMENT KISMET
Turkish soap operas have taken Arab societies by storm, revealing the desire of a young generation of women for change. Co-produced with Forest Troop ONE LAST JOURNEY
45 year-old captain Yiannis and his crew of 4 men, live on the remote island of Kalymnos, in the north Aegean Sea. Just after Easter, they will embark on a journey that has already claimed thousands of lives in the past: a sponge diving expedition across the Mediterranean Sea, the last of its kind. “One Last Journey” follows this group of seafarers for a period of 5 months, as they prepare and set off from Kalymnos, to Crete and Italy all the way to Malta. Diving at 60-70m depth, while breathing through water hoses connected to a custom-made air compressor, they will try to collect as many sponges as possible. Captain Yiannis knows the difficulties of the long journey: he risks his life, the lives of his men, his fortune. He is the last survivor of a tradition that once flourished throughout the Mediterranean –and this is the story of his last journey.

The film captures life at the easternmost edge of Europe, in a land rediscovering its own powers in order to survive the crisis. On the remote island of Ikaria, we discover a people with extraordinary skills of cooperation and survival. Their story tells us how to live better with less and why this is important for us today... Writer / Director Nikos Dayandas Producers Rea Apostolides, Yuri Averof FIGURING IT OUT
In an exhilarating journey spanning centuries, the film reveals a startling new way of looking at the world around us through archaeology and art: the works contemporary artists make now are as important for comprehending our world and our lives, as are the ancient ruins to understanding the past. From the mysterious prehistoric stone circles in Orkney to Richard Long’s archetypical land artworks, from Pompeii to Antony Gormley's haunting human figures being swallowed by the tide in Liverpool and from the Tate Gallery in London to the first human footsteps in Tanzania, the film brings together two powerful ways of seeing the world -that of art and archaeology- to make a sense out of the things we make, use and ultimately leave behind. To figure out what it means to be human.
