CAMP OF EXPECTATION
PERIFEREIAKO GYMNASIO XYLOTYMVOU - 1st prize at the A.E.I. 2019 Film Festival - A documentary that impressed the depth and breadth of the research that was done, despite the young age of the students who attend high school, hence the award of the First Prize.

GYMNASIO "VERGINA" LARNAKAS - 3rd prize at the A.E.I. 2019 Film Festival - A detailed and careful review of the history of the Larnaca salt flats and their importance today as habitats. It is enriched with interviews by the historical researcher Nasa Patapiou, the senior health inspector of the Municipality of Larnaca, Kostas Kokkinos, and a driver in the transport of salt, Stelios Michael.

These films were produced by High school students who participetated at the film workshop the AEI AUDIOVISUAL FORUM organised together with the Cyprus UNESCO School Network in 2019 and have awarded with cash prizes sponsored by the Cyprus Radio-Television Authority

Our documentary endeavours to illustrate the prominent Cypriot printmaker Hambis Tsangaris. We visited his Workshop/Museum and interviewed the artist himself as well as some of his close friends. That gave us an insight into his personality and his identity as a teacher. Our aim is to raise awareness about Hambis’ great contribution to Cypriot Art and Culture.
