A discovery of the incredible musical journey of the great Greek composer Yani Spanos (Γιάννης Σπανός), setting off from small-town Kiato to major collaborations in Paris, and ultimately his huge success in Greece. With rare documents and interviews and through the eyes of a devoted fan, we explore why Spanos chose to stay behind the scenes, letting his music steal the spotlight.
