ΛΕΣΒΙΑ

26th TIDF: World Premiere

Since the 1970s, lesbians from around the world would flock to a small village on the Greek island of Lesvos. As tensions between the newly-arrived lesbians and local residents rose, Tzeli Hadjidimitriou – caught in the middle as a local and lesbian herself – chronicled 40+ years of love, community, conflict, and what it means to feel accepted.
