Director’s statement

I am Greek-American. My father immigrated from Greece and my mother is a first-generation Greek-American. I grew up speaking two languages, Greek and English, and because of my parents I grew up culturally different from those around me, not just in the United States either, but in Greece. I like to say that in the US, I’m Greek, and in Greece, I’m American, so what am I? My upbringing has informed my thoughts and philosophies on identity in America, and I’m obsessed with identity and the sense of feeling lost. I hope to make Greek-American-centric stories that will not just reach people like me but those that struggle with finding their identity
