There Is a Greek Everywhere. The entire essence of the documentary series “Greeks, Citizens of the World” is encapsulated in this phrase. The series is part of the National Program of Actions and Events of the “Greece 2021” Committee and is produced under its auspices, with the HELLENIC PETROLEUM Group as Action Sponsor.

The Protagonists

In this new production, the protagonists are Greek “citizens of the world” who excel abroad and leave their mark on the political, social, cultural, and economic development of the places that host them. People with skills, knowledge, networks, and influence—capable of shaping and co-creating, of building and contributing.

The Idea and the Creators

Conceived and curated by Marianna Skilakaki and Sylvia Klimaki, and directed by Angelos Tsaousis, the project “Greeks, Citizens of the World” presents cosmopolitan Greeks who honored Greece and carried it with them to the places where they studied and worked, and to the places they loved—often as a second homeland. Greeks who returned, enriching Greece with ideas and capabilities, as well as Greeks who still live abroad while continuing to invest in their homeland. Thanks to the significant support of the HELLENIC PETROLEUM Group, which singled out the action “Greeks, Citizens of the World” from among hundreds of others, we discover their stories and come to understand Hellenism as a living, broad, and dynamic concept. The guests speak about what they bring with them each time they return to Greece and envision the ways in which the diaspora—this valuable reservoir of Greeks around the world—can contribute to the next ambitious chapter that Hellenism can write.
