Summaries

The film narrates the struggle of the Greek Nation.

This is the first historical Greek film that narrates the struggle of the Greek Nation, from the Revolution of 1821 against the Ottoman Empire, until the liberation of Greece in 1944, after the German Occupation. This part-documentary, part-drama movie depicts the legendary moments of modern Greek history, starting from the secret schools that were responsible for the continuation of the religion, the beliefs, and the language of Greece, to the brave Klephts to the naval battle in Navarino, and the Albanian Front.—Nick Riganas
