Series of hourly broadcasts produced in 2024

"GREEK ACTS" travels, records, and presents the timeless cultural expressions of people and places. The journey, the music, the myth, the dance, the world. This is the destination of the show. The protagonist is the human, accompanied by mythical ancestors, in the local cultural events. It's where human adventure is distinctively traced in its authentic expression, across time. The show travels, explores, and reveals an enthralling human geography. The mosaic of the present creative and timeless cultural evolution of our country is showcased, with a selection of people-protagonists, events, and places, thus highlighting and complementing a living anthology. With music, stories, and images... With a revealing and sensitive gaze, with in-depth research rather than surface-level exploration, "GREEK ACTS" focuses on "unique" moments of human expression.
With a screenplay structured cinematically, each story, where the show focuses its lens, unfolds fully without "intermediaries", by the protagonists themselves, creating a documentary that "composes" the present with the past, the myth with history, where everyday people are the protagonists. Myths, history, time, people, and places harmoniously compose a complete set of creative expression. The direct and authentic documentation, by the genuine "bearer" and "expresser" of each story - rather than someone "interfering" - is the primary, inviolable rule guiding the research and realization.
Behind each documentary, there is extensive preparation. And the image eventually appearing on the small screen - the result of the efforts of the show's collaborators - constitutes a wholly original production, from the first to the last frame. In this year's journey from Crete to Evros and from the Ionian to the Aegean Sea, the show presents a feast of ethnographic, anthropological, and musical expression. Authentic creations of people and places.
The human, life, and its voice firsthand, the sounds, the images, the customs, and behaviors, the journey of rhythms, the history of dance "written step by step", the celebratory events, and every human endeavor, filmed in their natural and social context of action, at the moment of their authentic execution - and not through a fake representation - determine, create the form, style, and characterize the show.

The story of a musical instrument that, during its 100 years journey in Greece, has marked Greek music and has left a great musical legacy. With its dominant presence and its aggressive imposition, in continuation of the ancestral musical instruments, the klarino (Greek clarinet) gave a new identity to the local musical characteristics of Greece.
The great Greek clarinet musicians Petros Loukas - Chalkias, Nikos Filippidis, Napoleon Damos and Giorgos Kotsinis, reveal the clarinet’s journey and history, alongside their own creative path in their art and their lives.
