When The Swallows Fall Silent (2025)
Directed by Constantinos Patsalides

In a rapidly changing old city, a heartfelt narrative unfolds around the historic Faneromeni School and the iconic Mattheo’s restaurant where the history and cherished traditions of the past collide with the pressures of modernization.
