ECHOES OF THE DOLPHIN
ArtCinema announced the World Premiere of our first original production.
This 30-minute experimental short documentary, filmed entirely on Hydra, is directed by acclaimed Greek filmmaker Antonis Sotiropoulos with producer Georgia Andreou, and commissioned by ArtCinema founder Amanda Palmer. It also marks the beginning of a feature-length project, set for completion next year on the 70th anniversary of Boy on a Dolphin.

The film revisits the 39 days in 1956 when a Greek-American and Italian crew arrived with 22-year-old rising Italian actress Sophia Loren to film the iconic movie, forever linking the island to her international career. By combining personal stories, archival material, and live performances from Hydra residents, it is a work shaped by the community itself.
