CINEFIX: AN OPEN-AIR CINEMA ON ΕΜΣΤ΄S ROOFTOP TERRACE

Each summer ΕΜΣT transforms its rooftop into one of the most impressive outdoor cinemas in Athens, CineFIX, recalling the name of the former brewery in which it is housed. With panoramic views of the entire city, including the Acropolis, Museum’s rooftop terrace provides ideal conditions for the screening of works in moving image. The programme starts on 25 May on a weekly basis.

MAY

Thursday 28 May | 21: 00

Chris Marker & Pierre Lhomme
Le joli mai (The Lovely Month of May), 1963
145’

The iconic documentary by Chris Marker and Pierre Lhomme captures Paris in May 1962, immediately after the end of the Algerian War. Through conversations with the city’s residents—workers, students, intellectuals, passersby—the film composes a polyphonic portrait of French society at a moment of transition. A cinematic essay on everyday life, political consciousness, and the atmosphere of an era.

In French with Greek subtitles.
