我爱希腊神话故事

A ncient Greek mythology is the only one that surpassed the borders of its country of origin.Odysseus, Hercules, Achilles, Jason,

Prometheus, Helen of Troy and many other well known figures to any educated reader around the world.

The Greek cultural heritage is a cornerstone of European civilization.

The Greek heroes incarnate virtues of all humans such as bravery, self-sacrifice, patriotism, pride, loyalty to family ties and friendship, hospitality...

MIKIS THEODORAKIS The Greek soul

Dreams’ MarathonNikos Michalopoulos - Anna Verouli “Dreams’ Marathon” attempts to approach an aspect of the race through the eyes and heart of a teenager who anticipates this very race rather as his own chance to make people take notice of him, through an undoubtedly peaceful yet high powered process, which eventually helps him to get to know his own self and identify his needs, concerns and dreams; he finds the way to approach all those he feels close to him, yet at the same time so far away in an inexplicable way.
