Scene from the documentary The Landowner's Son by Marianna Economou

The landowner’s son

Philip, heir to a 19 th century English owned estate in Greece, fights to save his land and family house by converting it into an agrotourism venture. But simmering village resentment and state bureaucracy over foreign landownership breed a hostile environment that repeatedly undermines his plans. A tense, intimate tale of legacy and belonging in a rapidly changing political landscape.
