ATLAS E.P. shares accessibility vibes with the 14th Interbalkan Short Film Festival "Balkans Beyond Borders - Athens Edition" through the "Cinema Together" initiative. Its aim is to emphasise the need for more and more film screenings to be accessible for everyone, so that we can be at the Cinema Together.
In the first event of "Cinema Together", Balkans Beyond Borders SFF is showing the medium-length film "We all come from somewhere", the result of a collaboration between four professional inclusive theatre groups from Greece, Ireland, Italy and Czech Republic as part of Creative Europe's POWER project (www.power-creative.eu) and under the auspices of the Ministry of Culture and Sports. The film focuses on the migration crisis of recent years.
