Hi odinita
Thank you for taking the trouble to read my blog and comment. Unfortunately, I cannot answer you in Greek as my greek writng is awful.
The festival was good. It was wonderful to see so many greek people interested in the issues as well as in the cultures represented there. They screened a documentary about Latin American immigrants in Athens. It was a fascinating insight into the way people adapt in an adopted country while keeping their own culture alive. I think that is something the Greek people are not used to yet. That people don't want to lose their identity and yet embrace Greece as their new home.

The results of the festival? That I am not sure. I don't think festivals solve problems. They can only bring people together, impart information and, perhaps, give people some insight into other peoples cultures and make them more aware of the problems faced by us foreigners.

Hope you will keep reading
