Screening programs / Artists :
Saturday 2/3, 7pm
YOU & i | curated by Maria Bourika | duration: 40′
A program that highlights you (in capital letters) and shrinks the “i” (in lowercase form)? Interpersonal relations, subversions, conflicts that move from loneliness to humor and from cruelty to playfulness. Is it a matter of winning?

The Game of Poverty | duration: 35′
The game of poverty: a documentary by Ilias Marmaras/Dimitris Daldakis/Emmanouil Koutsourelis (Greece 2011)
This video documentary is based on a radio documentary directed by Emmanouil Koutsourelis and written by Ilias Marmaras and Dimitris Daldakis. The radio version was nominated for the Prix Europa 2011 in Berlin.
Dimitris Daldakis explains the concept of the documentary:
“Poverty seems to follow man unwaveringly. Since his early days until today and, despite his bright conquests in experience and in science, he continues to form societies that are unjust, aggressive and fragmented. We discover that the basic, deepest goal of man is to amass an abundance of wealth at the expense of his fellow man. We discover that at the carefully staged and carried out rivalries produced by Religion, Politics and Economy, in a word, by any type of power, there are, always, a few gorged winners and countless hungry losers. We discover that it is not the natural game of survival that defines us, but a sophisticated game of exploitation and, in the end, of misery. In our times, repeatedly and in all the more alarming frequency, we see the word crisis coming up. Crisis means poverty. The distinctive face of poverty comes again to remind us of Man.
(…) Amidst this frame context of finance fashion, we have forgotten the meaning of primary needs. And so we, all, poor players, found ourselves betting on who is to crumble down and who is to remain standing.
Anim[n]ation | curated by Gioula Papadopoulou and Giorgos Dimitrakopoulos | duration: 100′
Animation in multiple versions & techniques is a common global language. Animators from 20 countries meet in an extra program of Festival Miden, which was screened for the first time in the frame of Kalamata Street Festival, an alternative youthful event realized by Kalamata’s Youth Center.
In this background of generalized concern for the future of modern man, of the generalized
concern for the future of modern Europe, Ilias Marmaras and Dimitris Daldakis present the
video documentary ‘The Game of Poverty’.”
