Industrial history through the voices of those who lived it
The documentary “The Industrial Heritage of Santorini and Therasia” sheds light on aspects of production and working life during the last century. Rare film footage, historical archives, photographs and contemporary recordings come together to create a valuable historical record, centred on the personal testimonies of people who worked in the islands’ industrial facilities.
The event will also include a guided tour of the INDUSTRIANA exhibition, a presentation of the Cycladic Identity Initiative and a discussion with the documentary’s contributors, focusing on the preservation and promotion of industrial heritage.
