Sinopse
An economic crisis, protests, poverty, unemployment, the emergence of an ultra right wing Nazi party all colluded with the police. These were all the ingredients of a social-economic crisis that could have brought Greece and the Euro zone to collapse. I travelled from Athens to Patras, running into characters who told me their stories. Agon (ἀγών) means competition, confrontation, but also struggle. I found both in Greece: the ones who were struggling to survive and the ones who were ready to engage in their battle.
