Interview between ​the Time.news Editor and Dr. Eleni Christodoulou,‍ Historian and Cultural ​Expert on Cyprus

Time.news Editor (TNE): Good evening, Dr. Christodoulou. ‌Thank you for joining us today to discuss the highly anticipated third cycle of the “Famagusta” series. This production has captivated audiences and brings⁣ to light some profound historical events.⁢ What is it⁢ about this series that resonates so‍ deeply with‌ viewers?

Dr. Eleni Christodoulou (EC): Good evening,​ and thank you for having‍ me. The “Famagusta” series does an exceptional job of blending history with‌ personal narratives, which creates ⁣an ​emotional connection for viewers. By focusing on individual⁤ stories, ⁣like that of the Sekeris family and their lost brother Michael, the series humanizes the broader historical context of the ‌Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974. Audiences are ‌drawn in not⁢ only by the ‌historical facts but by the shared ⁣struggles and emotional‌ journeys of the characters.

TNE: Absolutely. The ⁤first episode of this new cycle, premiering tonight, ⁤takes us ‌back to November 1974 when Archbishop Makarios addressed the Greek ‍people from ​Athens. How significant‍ is this event in the context of ‍Cypriot history?

EC: Archbishop Makarios was a pivotal figure in Cypriot history.​ His return to power symbolized hope⁢ for many following the traumatic ​events of the invasion. His sermon captured the spirit and resilience of the Greek Cypriots. By integrating such key historical moments, the series provides a backdrop that emphasizes the political⁣ and emotional‍ turmoil of that era. It is a moment that many Cypriots remember vividly, ‌and by‌ revisiting it, the show allows them to reflect on their past.

TNE: The documentary element included in the ⁤series is particularly compelling. The stories‌ of ⁣suffering, such as those shared by children⁤ tortured by soldiers—how⁤ does this fit into the ⁤narrative?

EC: These ⁣testimonies are crucial because‌ they​ underscore the human cost of⁤ conflict. They remind us that behind every historical event,‍ there are real ⁤people with harrowing experiences. Highlighting these stories⁣ within the series serves not only to educate viewers‍ about the atrocities that took place but also to foster empathy.⁤ As society continues to grapple with the legacy of such conflicts,⁤ these narratives can contribute to healing and ‌reconciliation.

TNE: It’s encouraging to see the interest in these⁢ stories. With so⁤ many years passed since these events, how do you feel this series impacts⁢ the younger generations who may not ⁣be as familiar with this history?

EC: That’s⁣ a critical point. For younger generations, who may feel disconnected from the past, the series serves as an important educational tool. It presents history in​ an engaging format that captures​ their ‍attention and inspires them to learn more. By connecting emotionally with the personal stories presented, young viewers can ⁣develop a sense of identity and responsibility towards their cultural heritage.

TNE: Lastly, what are your hopes for the final cycle of ⁣”Famagusta”? What message do you think it should convey ‍to its audience?

EC: ​My hope is that the ‍final cycle encapsulates the‍ complexities of loss, trauma, ‍and resilience while promoting understanding and dialogue. This⁢ series provides a‌ unique opportunity to reflect on our shared histories and the importance of remembering. I wish for viewers to⁣ be inspired to look towards ⁢a future of unity and peace, ⁢acknowledging the past but also recognizing the potential for healing.

TNE: Thank you so much,‍ Dr. Christodoulou, for sharing your insights. We look forward to watching the ‍series unfold and appreciate your expertise on such an important subject.

EC: ⁢Thank​ you ‌for ⁤having me; it’s been a pleasure ​discussing this vital piece of our history.
