Documentary "D Minor...Off We Go"

This year, we embarked on an exciting collaborative project with two primary schools, delving into the world of rebetiko music. To see more details about the project visit the link below.

The Rebetiko Project

One of the end products of the project was the collaborative creation of a documentary that focused on the cultural significance of rebetiko highlighting the contributions of Vamvakaris and Tsitsanis, the two legends of rebetiko genre. It features interviews conducted by our pupils with Mr. Korovinis and Mr. Strouthopoulos, whose lives are closely connected to rebetiko. Additionally, it showcases historical sites of Thessaloniki that have significant ties to the rebetiko tradition.

We took part in the 3rd Film Festival for schools at the Olympion cinema.
