Chloe

Greek Silent Masterpieces | Athens | July 14

The Greek Festival and the Greek Film Archive present two silent films that helped change the course of cinema in this country in a double bill at the open-air Herod Atticus Theater. Orestis Laskos's "Daphnis & Chloe" from 1931, based on the only known work of the 2nd century AD Greek writer Longus, is hailed as the first European film with a nude scene.
