O agonas ton tyflon
A documentary film, similar in its ambitions to the Struggle, of the team of Eight, but much more limited in its thematic breadth. The subject is the situation of the blind in our country, who, for the most part, are reduced to begging in the streets, while the Greek church rather arbitrarily manages the only asylum for the blind, in Kallithea, and at the same time tries to support their struggle for better living conditions. This struggle was manifested in their occupation of the School for the Blind and their wider conflict with all the repressive mechanisms of the state.
