Description

Through their life story, George Krokos - executed by the Germans on 5/1/1944 - and Dimitris Christoulas - ended his life in front of the Greek parliament on 4/4/2012 - give us the opportunity to analyze the current economic and humanitarian crisis in Greece in juxtaposition with the economic policies of the Third Reich during Second World War. Historical facts will help us shine a light on the present. To understand how political mechanisms often exploit or even create financial crises in order to achieve their goals. How different are the master plans that led humanity into World War II, from those that resulted in the crisis we are experiencing today? A film about Democracy and Fascism from today's Greece.
