Today:
"Carnival and Karagiozis"
In this episode of the documentary series Paraskinio, author Giannis Kiourtsakis explores the inseparable connection between carnival celebrations, folk theater, and shadow puppetry.
Both in carnival traditions and in Karagiozis, social conditions and realities are depicted through symbolic language. These cultural expressions serve as a means of seeking collective immortality.
Through customs, traditions, and rituals, people gain the ability to create new inner worlds.
Folk theater and carnival act as stimuli for the discovery of the deeper aspects of human nature.
