Ap’to Hioni

Two young refugees from Northern Epirus, cross the Albanian border into Greece, the land of their dreams at night. With them is a boy whose mother was killed in a clash with Albanian border guards. The odyssey of these three people, a journey to the very heart of Greece. Their discovery of this country’s strenght and weaknesses. Their acquaintance with the endurance and limits of every modern western society. “In Albania they called us Greeks and in Greece, Albanians…” Thomas tells Achilles a little before the end.
