This is a documentary in progress exploring youth culture in Greece and currently focusing on Athens. The work looks at first and second generation immigrant families, including those of mixed origin. Syntagma square, a public space in the centre of Athens, is a neutral meeting place. Some elected to resist the cumulative effects of the financial crisis by expressing creative abilities, and forming strong relationships. This expression of resistance, is far removed from negative personal experiences .

She has previous experience in the animation and design industries and holds a BA(hons) in Product Design from Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design in London (now the University of the Arts).
