17TH GREEK FILM FESTIVAL
Thursday 7 October - Sunday 10 October
Palace Nova Eastend Cinemas, Rundle Street, Adelaide
The Greek Orthodox Community of South Australia presents the 17th Annual Greek Film Festival in the year that it celebrates the 80th anniversary of its foundation in 2010.
Held as part of Adelaide's Hellenic Cultural Festival Odyssey, this year's Festival features an eclectic line-up of Greek cinema.
Comedies and the Greek Film Festival are inextricably connected, and this year is no exception, with light-hearted feature films such as the box office hit Nisos, a not-so-classic whodunit shot on the beautiful island of Sifnos, and I Love Karditsa, a Prince and pauper story of a very different kind, while Dangerous Cooking serves up a gastronomic love triangle.
The Festival also features Adelaide filmmaker Viron Papadopoulos' short film Bad Language which he will introduce at a special screening on the closing night of the festival.
The Opening Night features Nisos, the film which outsold Avatar at the Greek Box Office. The film commences at 7.30pm on Thursday October 7, and is followed by a celebration of all things Greek at the opening night party.
"The 2010 Greek Film Festival is a long standing commitment by the Greek Orthodox Community of South Australia to promote Greek Cinema and filmmakers of Greek heritage, both here and abroad" said Vassilis Elovaris, President of the Greek Orthodox Community of South Australia.
