Overview

Episode from the documentary series Paraskinio, dedicated to Mimis Fotopoulos, who speaks about his life and work in a monologue in front of the camera, likely improvised. We watch footage from his films, and we hear him reading aloud. Among the ruins of an open-air space, mostly used as a film studio, he initially plays the blind man from "The Counterfeit Coin", talks about his films such as "The Counterfeit Coin", "Laterna, Poverty and Dignity", and "The Little Chauffeur", and comments on that period of the golden age of classic Greek cinema. Fotopoulos wanders through the ruined studio and discusses the increased responsibilities of actors in theater and the challenges of filming while performing in plays during the flourishing period of Greek cinema.
