The film by the young director Dinos Panagokos made a sensation at the Premiere Nights

It's just 29 years old and determined to conquer cinema, even if he realizes how elusive such a dream seems in today's Greece; especially for young people. His name is Dinos Panagokos and the first sample of his work was seen during the last film festival Premiere Nights Cosmote. His short film "Anonymous" was screened in the new competition section of the event and may not have been awarded, but it made a sensation.

The ten-minute long film is very topical even though Mr. Papagokos points out that "journalism must be current, not the art". And he has every reason to say so because "Anonymous", the 24 hours of a closure (Panos Kranidiotis) which is slowly degenerating, "disappears" in today's Syntagma Square, was born several years ago in the director's imagination. Long before Greece began to experience its current drama.

Actually, the birth of the idea of ​​"Anonymous" dates back to 2005 at the time when the future director was writing a poem. The poem became a story and the story became a screenplay.

But the script would never have been realized if the producer Telemachos Sarlis had not been in the middle. Childhood friend of Dinos Panagokos, Mr.. Charles speaks with equal passion about cinema as his partner. The two leave the impression that the spirit of cooperation in such times is A and Z.

Dinos Panagokos was born in 1983 in Athens and is of Arcadian and Laconian origin. He studied chemistry at the Kapodistrian University of Athens, in the science department. But he gave up. A self-taught filmmaker with a huge passion for cinema, he started working at Boo Productions in the production department.

A conversation with him is started by Francois Truffaut, it goes through Theodoros Angelopoulos and ends up with Andrei Tarkovsky. "The need to express myself through cinema is internal," says D. Panagokos "but I am not sure what exact need it is. Because the more I learn the more my anxiety expands, the more limited I feel is the scope of my knowledge".

And financial difficulties; The heavy atmosphere of the time; The disappointment; Mr. Panagokos smiles remembering a phrase of his absolute idol, of the pioneering Central European inventor, Nikola Tesla: "I give you this present. The future belongs to me".
