A gripping exploration of history. We travel all the way to Africa and the turbulent country of Angola. For centuries, Angola was under the colonial yoke of Portuguese colonizers… The oppressed rise up. The downtrodden of the earth… With the fall of the dictatorship in Portugal, the situation changes, and the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola comes to power after great struggles, led by Agostinho Neto. The country is devastated… Broken at every level. The colonizers leave without leaving anything behind… A civil war breaks out with UNITA, which has seceded and plays the game of the apartheid forces…
And in all this, there are Greeks! Brave activists who went there to help rebuild the country from scratch. There are others who were already there… Like the legendary Daskalos family from Poros (Nikolokouvaros, their real name, which changed over time). A family that played an important role in the existence of the country and in the revolution…
Historian and museologist Maria Stefanou, who lived through all the events, shares, for the first time in the show “Time in Greece”, ahares unknown stories with Greek and revolutionary roots!
