In the wake of two challenging years for the Greek film industry, this year’s Iris Awards by the Hellenic Film Academy have set their sights on life and creation, choosing to dedicate their 13th edition to love. The Iris Awards contenders across 22 categories represent 39 features and 65 short films drawn from the fields of fiction, documentary, animation, minority co-productions, and student projects. Among them are two Onassis Culture productions: the film “Builders, Housewives and the Construction of Modern Athens” by Tassos Langis and Yiannis Gaitanidis, and the documentary short “Girlhood” directed by Vania Turner and Maria Sidiropoulou.
