Savvopoulos Long Play

Savvopoulos Long Play

This special six-episode tribute focuses on the discography of Dionysis Savvopoulos, presenting ten of his emblematic albums - a turning point in Greek music. Six total "eras" of musical creation and history. In this documentary, which was to be the last legacy of Dionysis Savvopoulos, he himself tells stories that marked his life and the lives of everyone, from 1965, when he released his first album, to the present day, while for the last time he sings, with his guitar and unique voice, songs that we loved from his discography. In his unique way - the one that sweetly mixes myth with reality - he talks about the "lives" he lived, the people he met, his songs that were loved and left their indelible mark over time. The visual part, is by Alexis Kyritsopoulos, a companion and friend of Savvopoulos from the beginning, with works that he designed especially for this particular tribute, which also come to life through animation.

The 6th episode begins during the period of the great demonstrations for the Macedonian and national fever, in which he himself participated. The songs for the album "Don't Throw Anything" were ready in February 1993, to be tested out to the public. We follow him on that legendary tour, in Plovdiv, his mother's city, in Sofia, where he met Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares outside the church of Alexander Nevsky, in Belgrade, where he broke the embargo, playing in front of 10,000 people, in Bucharest, in Nicosia on the Green Line and, finally, Kastra of Thessaloniki. Five years passed until the next album, "Chronopoios", was released on the eve of the first New Year of the new century. On the eve, a big concert was organized under the Acropolis, with Mikis conducting one of his works and immediately after, at the turn of the year, Savvopoulos took the stage and played a new song, "Proti tou 2000".
