On the occasion of the World Day Against Child Labour (June 12) the show “Historical Walks” explores the institution of domestic work from the end of the 19th century to the case of Spyridoula Rapti, who shook Greek society in the middle of the 20th century.
Historian Mrs. Pothiti Hantzaroula, author of the book “Sculpting Submission” (Papazisis publications) which is based on interviews with the domestic workers/nurses/maids, reveals what was happening behind closed doors in the Athenian homes.
Actors (graduates of the Athens Conservatory), Nadia Baiba, Petros Pigas, Alexandra Rouvela, Giota Chnari and journalist Efi Zerva read the shocking testimonies as well as excerpts from the press of the time.
Produced and presented by Marilena Katsimi, journalist
