GFF26 Kapodistrias

From internationally acclaimed filmmaker Yannis Smaragdis, KAPODISTRIAS (THE GOVERNOR) is a sweeping historical epic that brings to life one of Greece’s most defining figures. At its centre is Ioannis Kapodistrias, a visionary diplomat and the first Governor of modern Greece, called upon to lead a newly independent nation through a fragile and uncertain beginning.

Epic in scale and grounded in human conviction, KAPODISTRIAS is a powerful portrait of leadership, faith and legacy, capturing the life of a man whose ideals helped define a nation
