In this film, I followed Nektarios for an entire day, just as he is — with his own rhythm, struggles, and persistence. What I wanted was to show the daily route of a man trying to stay on his feet in a city that changes faster than his life can keep up with.
I wasn’t interested in making a “big” story, but an honest one. To focus on the small moments we usually overlook. Through Nektarios, I wanted to show that behind every person we pass by on the street, there is a whole world we don’t know.
This film is my attempt to give space to someone like him — and to let us see him as he really is.
