The Thessaloniki Film Festival invites us all to unforgettable movie experiences, in the most beloved spots in Thessaloniki: The Port and Aristotelous Square. Let us all enjoy the magic of musicals, during two summer, starry nights. On Tuesday, July 5, 2022 we meet in the Port, to watch the famous anti-war musical Hair (1979) by renowned Czech director Milos Forman. Hair is about the life of a group of hippies that celebrate love, not war, at a time when the USA was experiencing the Vietnam War.
