Truth Be Told II

A micro documentary festival
Η αλήθεια να λέγεται

A Festival Hellenika film event

Director and writer: Madeleine Parry. Will killing the meat she eats change the way Madeleine feels about her food and herself?

Filmmaker M. Zournazi traces the journey of her forebears from Smyrna in Turkey to Sydney Australia but discovers more than family history, she finds out how music connects people during times of struggle and crises. The film explores how through its rawness and unique style, Rembetika music provides one of the world’s foremost musical accounts of migrant experience and urban blues. It explores the revival of Rembetika today, and how it conveys everyday life through the fusion of street music, hip-hop, and other influences such as Byzantine music and the Blues.
