Little Land

Since the beginning of the crisis in Greece, a growing number of unemployed Athenians have decided to move to the countryside, hoping to change their lives for the better. Among them is Theodoris who settled in Ikaria, a remote island in the Aegean Sea. He discovers there a local functional economy, a small society with a unique culture of autonomy and cooperation, where people’s lives are not only better but also longer. The film aims to bring out the secret of the Ikarians, whose completely different life could become relevant for us in times of economic and social upheaval.
