An extraordinary event in the programme is the visit of the great lady of British acting and dedicated human rights activist Vanessa Redgrave for the presentation of her documentary "Sea Sorrow" at the Athens Concert Hall on Friday, September 22nd. Her directorial debut is a very personal and dynamic reflection on the current global refugee crisis, through the eyes of children and the voice of activists and artists, combining the present with the past in a unique way.
The program for the 23rd AIFF has been announced with 10 participating films in the competition section, a collaboration with Animasyros, the “Prick your ears” musical section, a tribute to Cinema & Disability, Greek Nights with Greek productions and naturally premieres - filmgoers brace yourselves!
