Greek cinema: ‘despair is not an option’ 
A silver lining for Greece? 
Gloom grows in Greece as crisis deepens 
Greek euro exit would be very costly 
Isolation or austerity: Greeks face tough choice “The economic crisis in Greece is like an earthquake and Peter is scared of earthquakes.” Thus starts the video short by Greek film-maker Gabriel Psaltakis on the disastrous state of his country’s finances. Peter, played by Malamas Sotiriou, is a young man who’s being constantly hassled by an estate agent and who is drowning in the economic crisis until he gets a visit from the Positive Mind. The Positive Mind can help. The Positive Mind has the answers.
Psaltakis uses comedy and refined photography to sum up with plenty of originality the sentiment of despair and resignation of his compatriots.
