DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT

«In health there is freedom. Health is the first of all liberties.»   --The journal intime of Henri-Frederic Amiel, 1891


“The film examines the lack of freedom, when there is no health. About a person who is unable to express her will, to be free. Someone, who depends on the State to offer care for. A country plagued by financial crisis and increased unemployment, fails to provide to the weak, because she herself is ill. A society that’s dying slowly, and taking down those people with her, in its declining course.”


 - Julia Speropoulos, director/producer/animator

«In health there is freedom. Health is the first of all liberties.»
