Christos Mastoras: Shocks from Kazantzidis – The first shots from the film
Summary
The moving story of a child from a Pontus refugee family who managed to survive and progress thanks to his enormous talents and against all social and personal difficulties.
Music, love, family, friends, fishing, creation, night boys, fanatical fans, big disputes, create a mosaic of his life.
Film – a tribute to a great singer, whose voice “spoke” to the hearts of all Greeks, all over the world, Stelios Kazantzidis – for those who loved him, and for those who want to know .
Director’s note
In this film I will try to touch the soul of the man who spoke to millions of other people with his songs. With the power and magic of his voice, all doors were opened for him and those around him. But his family, his love, his claim, his immense appeal, left him no room for happiness.
In the film we see the birth of some significant songs for the Greeks, which we still sing and dance to in our parties and parties. At the same time we see the country developing and mutating, the world going from poverty to a new era that is going out of control, giving a glimpse of the beginning of our current evolution.
Cinematically, the film is mainly about the characters and their truth. As the years go by, decorations and clothes change quickly and without describing them, we feel that they are filled with new things, materials and colors. We will go into places and situations that we have all seen in the classic black and white films, and we will film with all modern methods the backstage of the first great singers of the Greek star system.
The big challenge of the project, of course, is to love Stelios Kazantzidis again as the hero of this particular film.
