Athens, April 1967.

During the first days of the military dictatorship, Loukas is suffocating in his family’s apartment, which he is not allowed to leave. He then invents a new game that connects him to the outside world: answering the telephone. But the house’s phone line gets mixed up with that of the Studio cinema...

Born in Athens, Greece in 1992, Olia lives and works between and Athens and Paris, where she studied cinema (Paris VII-Diderot, École des Gobelins). In 2021, she directed her first short Sacralisons. La Première Image is her first fiction. She is currently in post-production of her feature documentary Stories of a lie.

For the past ten years she has participated in the programming and organization of film festivals and labs (Les Écrans Documentaires, Cinéma du réel, Champs-Élysées film festival, Institut Français, Greek Film Archive, Oxbelly Screenwriters Lab…).
