Series of creative documentaries that delve into the work and lives of Greek creators, artists, scientists, as well as individuals who contribute - each in their own way - to the formation of our collective identity.
Beyond individual personalities, the series also showcases creative collectives and initiatives across social, ecological, and scientific fields. The filming for this series took place both in Greece and abroad.
The foundation of each documentary is an interview with the creator, where the thread of the narrative unfolds—memories, experiences, beliefs, and emotions. It is a careful excavation into the heart and spirit of each creator, moving from the surface to the depth. The camera frames the individual in close-up, closely observing and recording their confessions.
As the face gradually reveals itself, their work is presented within its historical evolution. Its significance is explained, placed within the historical context, and its qualities and uniqueness are highlighted.
This approach is applied to all other topics in the series as well. The qualitative standards of "Close Up" permeate every stage of creating each episode: from research and scripting to filming and technical editing.
It is worth noting that documentaries from this series have already participated in recognized festivals in Greece and abroad, winning distinctions and awards. "Close Up" is entirely an internal production of ERT, providing the opportunity for ERT's directors to express their ideas, opinions, and concerns, while delivering a valuable documentary series to the audience of public television.
Today:
"Science Reactors: Communicating Science in a Different Way"
Can science be made simple and understandable for the general public? Can we de-stigmatize the seriousness of science?
These questions are answered by the team of Science Reactors, which includes scientists from various fields: Physics, Astrophysics, Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics. All members share not only their love for science but also their passion for "opening" their work to the public in a simple, understandable, and simultaneously entertaining way.
The documentary officially participated in the 20th Thessaloniki Documentary Festival as part of the tribute "A Wonderful New World."
