Evia Film Project 2025

Rediscovering Greek summer

The 4th Evia Film Project is landing on Agia Anna, Edipsos and Limni, from June 17th to June 21st, 2025, with the notion of Greek summer at its thematic core.

The Evia Film Project remains geared towards the goal of sustainability and our relation with nature. This year’s edition re-approaches Greek summer in all its aspects: environmental, touristic, cultural, financial, political. We revive and relive Greek summer through its film depictions, but also through our own experiences, contemplating on the essence of Greek summer and how a land such as Northern Evia, in the aftermath of the of the destructions it suffered, can offer a new definition, a new way to enjoy and spend our summer in harmony with our surroundings. The Evia Film Project hosts screenings, talks, workshops and music events, with free admission for the public.

This year, for the first time, the Evia Film Project is hosting a series of network activities under the name “Kafeneio” (Traditional Café) that also includes in situ meetings between the Festival’s people and acclaimed film industry professionals in the places that beats the heart of Northern Evia, such as cafés and meeting-working hubs of the region’s residents. This initiative is composed of targeted, organised and brief talks for exchanging views on issues such as sustainability, love for nature and topics of great interest for the local society, both before and during the 4th EFP.

A selection of Greek and international films, classics and latest releases, fiction films and documentaries, urge us to rediscover Greek summer.
