Costa-Gavras visits “Our Town” | 24 Feb. 2025, 22:00

On Monday, February 24th, at 10:00 PM (Athens time), the show “Our Town” on Voice of Greece will feature Costas-Gavras.

The award-winning and renowned director will have an in-depth conversation with Themis Rodamitis about his latest film, The Last Breath. He will discuss the theme that “leaving as one desires, when there is no return, is a personal choice and should be respected.”
This great film, through the director’s lens, highlights the different characters and the varying ways in which death is approached, capturing the moments of parting with loved ones. Here, the director presents moments of joy, almost festive, and high-level communication.

Costa-Gavras will talk about his films, collaborations with iconic actors (Yves Montand, Romy Schneider, etc.), his favorite philosophers such as Socrates, Heraclitus, as well as as Cornelius Castoriadis and Kostas Axelos, who were his friends. He will share his thoughts on cinema, saying it primarily shows how people live, and express his optimism, especially for France, where women are the driving force behind most films.

The guest will talk about the important role of music in films, its connection with characters, and his collaborations with composers such as Vangelis Papathanassiou and Mikis Theodorakis, explaining that his relationship with Greece and the Greek people is strong.

Costa-Gavras will share that he remains deeply concerned about the world today, especially after Trump’s election. Reflecting on his own future as he turns 92, he will discuss how death remains a taboo, requiring preparation and time, and that the living should prioritize the feelings and needs of the departing.

The highly significant and pioneering director will also talk about his next film and will express that he remains combative and optimistic.

A different and revealing show, featuring the distinctive humor of Costa-Gavras.

Produced and presented by Themis Rodamitis
Broadcast: Monday, February 24th, 22:00 Athens time

Rebroadcast: Tuesday, February 25th, from 4:00 AM to 5:00 AM.
