Report on the The 53rd Thessaloniki International Film Festival: Like Someone in Love!

By: Mohammad Mohammadian

 It was my second trip to Greece and Thessaloniki Film Festival. I had promised myself to go to each Festival only once. But last year something happened that changed my mind: Canadian Embassy despite Montreal World Film Festival’s invitation and hotdocs, refused to issue a visa. On the other hand, Thessaloniki, the most important Film Festival in east of Europe, undeterred by all the economical problems that Greece is entangled with, is held this year as usual and as organized as ever. That’s why I decided to forget about my vow and go to Greece!
