  • The San Francisco Greek Film Festival (SFGFF) announces their drive-in movie presentation to complete the programming line-up for their 18th annual Festival. The musical drama Fantasia screens on Sunday evening, April 18, 8:30pm, at Par 3 at Poplar Creek in San Mateo.

  • The rest of the Festival’s feature and short film programs screen in virtual platform, and can be streamed anytime April 16-25.
Greece, October 1993. Greek Socialist party has just won the elections, television is dominated by trashy entertainment shows, and every night you can escape reality, or display your wealth in bouzouki clubs singing pop hits.

Fotini, a young talented singer arrives in Athens to work in an old bouzouki club. The lives of the three musicians will change forever… This musical drama brings to the screen the culture of bouzoukia, this unique Greek celebration of the good life. Moreover, it depicts the carefreeness, the abundance, and the euphoria of the Athenian nights of the early 90s as also draws its inspiration from the Greek urban-folk music scene.

It’s a homage to Greece’s urban-folk music tradition and a farewell to the old school of folk songwriting.


Fantasia is written and directed by Alexis Kardaras, and stars Stelios Mainas, Rena Morfi, and Yannis Stankoglou.
