The radio series “Unguarded Passage” opened the Tempi case in its own way, documenting, through multiple connections with European cities and capitals, the mobilizations of Greeks demanding full transparency in the investigation of the causes of the railway tragedy—now labeled as a crime—and the delivery of justice.
At the same time, it recorded the perspectives of Greeks living abroad on the Tempi disaster and shed light on international media coverage of the case.
The program aired from 1 to 3 p.m., coinciding with demonstrations taking place in Athens, Thessaloniki, and dozens of cities across Greece and abroad, centered around the messages “I have no oxygen” and “Justice.”
From Oslo and Prague to Budapest and Cologne, and from Leipzig and Brussels to Preston and Warsaw, university professors, representatives of Greek communities, and expatriates raised their voices together for JUSTICE and full transparency regarding the Tempi crime.
The program also featured songs written by Greek artists in response to the tragedy, including Pou eisai tora, for mou? by Foivos Delivorias, Den exo oxygono by Dimitris Mitsotakis—broadcast for the first time on ERT—Hameni Zoi by Andreas Katsigiannis and Estoudiantina Neas Ionias, performed by Ioulia Karapataki with lyrics by journalist Kostas Vaxevanis, as well as the songs Tha Argiso Apopse and Tha Nikisoume by the band Kinoi Thnitoi.
