Golden Dawn: A Personal Affair
What’s in the mind of the neo-nazi next-door? “My partner in life is a Jew, one of my sons is gay, another is an anarchist, and I am a left-wing feminist as well as a daughter of immigrants. If Golden Dawn comes to power our only problem will be which wagon they will put us on.” A journalist is delving for years into the organization of the Greek neo-Nazi party Golden Dawn. The financial collapse, the political instability and the family relations are placed into the spotlight as the documentary is trying to discover “what’s in the head of Golden Dawners, who pose as victims of the system.”
Golden Dawn: A Public Affair
How to resist? What sort of action to adopt against Nazism, fascism and the extreme right? Can Democracy still eradicate them once and for all without bending its own principles? How to fight back? Is the solution to be given by the courts? A political blockade from all political parties? A media boycott? Raising social awareness? A better education in school? Or is it a more physical resistance? A trial all the more important than the one of Nurenberg is the backbone of this documentary.
Oppression
As the economic crisis deepens, interventions in journalistic work are increasing and journalists are being asked to choose whether to follow a central line or whether to dare to take a different stance. Those who dare risk not only being fired or prosecuted, but even their physical integrity. Oppression presents just a few of the hundreds of incidents that show that one of the victims of the crisis in Greece is the free press.
