Following on from the success of the Greek Film Festival in 2009, the event returns this October with a bumper program and an extra week of film screenings. Comedies and the Greek Film Festival are inextricably connected, and this year is no exception, with light-hearted feature films such as the box office hit Nisos (dir. Christos Dimas), a not-so-classic whodunit shot on the beautiful island of Sifnos, and I Love Karditsa (dir. Stratos Markidis), a Prince and pauper story of a very different kind.

Dangerous Cooking(dir. Vasilis Tselemegos) starring Georges Corraface (Touch of Spice, 2009) serves up a ménage à trois between two cooks and the beautiful Nana (Katia Zygouli). Straight from the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival comes The Building Manager, a gently ironic portrait of a midlife crisis, directed by Periklis Hoursoglou who also plays the lead role.
