- An ERT documentary series about the Greek expats community in the United States. The "Traveling" doc series team - journalist Maya Tsoclis and director Chronis Pechlivanidis - go on the road around the world, following the routes of the Greek Diaspora. With a tender and objective gaze, they register contemporary Hellenism and meet representatives of the Greek community who recount essential chapters of contemporary Greek history through their personal, family narratives. The series "Routes of the Greek Diaspora" and its creators aspire to give viewers a clear picture of both the history and the great currents of mass immigration that led hundreds of thousands of Greeks to America, highlighting the great significance of the Greek Diaspora communities for Hellenism. Several uniquely different people gift their precious stories to the series. Some represent the old world, moving us and making us smile, while others open windows to the future, breaking down timeless stereotypes. The historical advisor of the series is the prolific Alexander Kitroeff, a specialist in Greek Diaspora issues.
- Every summer on a tiny island off the coast of Maine, an eclectic mix of banjo pickers, fiddlers, accordion players, bagpipers and folk singers gather to play for each other, the local islanders and the visiting schooner ships. This quirky "Sweet Chariot" music festival, with its traditional sea shanties, crumbling concert hall, dockside lobster bakes and multi-generational jams, offers a taste of the bygone days and a rare glimpse into classic Americana.
- "Dream Gang" is the tragicomical story of three treasure hunters who live in a village located on the slopes of Kure Mountains in Turkey. Our heroes, Arif (67), Mehmet(56), Refik(48) have been searching for a treasure for more than twenty years, which they think is hidden somewhere in the mountains. Led by Master Arif's enchanted treasure detector consisting of two deer horns, including technical wizard Mehmet and Refik the Digger, this likeable gang is an ideal team complementing each other. During the excavations, which are accompanied by strange rituals, our heroes' main inspiration are the verses that Master Arif has written himself in his diaries, which he claims are being whispered to him by a divine power: at times they are about Karun Treasuries, at times about Noah's Ark and sometimes even about the tomb of mankind's mother "Eve". Not finding a single thing over the years, being labeled as lunatics by neighbors and getting into trouble with law never deters this "Dream Gang" from keeping up their hopes.
