Airport LGAT "Hellinikon", [Trailer]
Short Documentary, 2014, #9303

​

Airport LGAT Hellinikon began in May 2013 as a project of stories and recollections from the western side of the former Hellinikon Airport, seen through the lived presence of Olympic Airways. The work grew from a personal connection within the team to both the site and the airline, and from a desire to approach this charged landscape with care, acknowledging the history held in its buildings, routes and routines.

Developed with respect for the place, the project aims to shape an artistic result that can still carry documentary weight, inviting emotion without forcing it.
It brings together video animation, installations, photographic material and a documentary, each medium offering a different way of listening to the airport’s remaining traces. The video animation and installations were created by Maria Tolia, the photographic work by Aimilia Vrotsou, and the documentary by Giannis Floulis and Constantinos-Sophocles Constantinou. Parts of the collaborative project were presented in 2014 at the Melina Mercouri Museum, Cultural Centre, Athens.
