Twelve neighbours (Odos Sfaktirias)

On Sfaktirias Street, a small pedestrian lane in inner city Athens, twelve neighbours — among them a lonely woman soothed by opera, a Pakistani immigrant, a poet, and two elderly sisters dispensing funeral offerings — share the rhythms of everyday life. As urban development transforms the city and intensifies social isolation, this documentary offers a tender and intimate portrait of one street that stands apart, celebrating the enduring power of community, coexistence, and human connection.
