“Cinema can transport us to different worlds, evoke emotions, and shed light on diverse stories. It is another medium through which we can explore our rich Greek heritage, history, and its influence on
our lives here in South Australia,” GOCSA Cultural Committee Chair, Hellas Lucas, said.

“The 2024 Greek Film Festival unfurls a canvas of bold narratives and remarkable visions, mirroring the evolving dynamics of the homeland and more broadly our world.

“We invite everyone to join us in exploring this year’s exceptional films, participate in vibrant discussions, and share in the joy of cinema that unites us all.”

Headlining the festival is the comedy ‘Hear Who’s Talking,’ directed by Thodoris Niarchos. The quirky film explores the story of Fotis, a life-coach who’s own life has reached an impasse.
