Meeting in Petalidi

Video, 54 minutes
DCP, 16:9, colour, stereo

Dedicated to Roula and Angelos Dimitriadis

Summer vacations at the sea in Petalidi, staying with my dear friend photographer Angelos Dimitriadis and his wife Stavroula.
Two elderly gentlemen philosophizing into the sunny afternoon; musing calmly, cheerfully, knowledgeably about their work with images, with photographic and cinematic methods, and whatever else was on their minds; while close by, old and young went swimming, or splashed about, in the shallow waters at the beach; and in the evenings, the lights of Kalamata beckoned in the distance.
Angelos passed away in March, 2023.
