Docville: Syntagma Square, Athens

Syntagma Square. Athens is an episode of Docville, a cinema-verite documentary series about urban life in Greece today, in a time of crisis: Syntagma Square, summer 2011. Every day the central square of Athens is full of people who peacefully besiege the Greek Parliament, searching for ways to be listened, ways to play a role in social and political things. Everyone is there for their own reasons. Yet they all demand a change. On the margin of those demonstrations, the camera follows a monk, a foreign vegetarian pacifist as well as other lonely persons who make up this incongruous crowd that succeeds, even for a little while, in coexisting, searching and hoping.
