Echoes of the Past(Movie, 2021)

Echoes of the Past (also titled Kalavryta 1943) is a 2021 Greek fiction drama directed by Nicholas Dimitropoulos, written by Dimitrios Katsantonis, and starring Max von Sydow in his final film role. The film is inspired by the infamous 'Massacre of Kalavryta' named after the homonymous Greek village invaded by Nazi troops in 1943. Caroline Martin, a lawyer representing Germany's government on Greek reparations claims, visits Greece and meets one of the remaining survivors of the massacre Nikolas Andreou. As Nikolas recounts the events of the past, all their personal prejudices and beliefs that meant to keep divided will bring them together. Their cathartic journey through this dark chapter of history reflects their shared need for gaining hope again. ()
