Production Context.
Multilingual interview setup: long-form conversations were recorded in German, English and Greek across several locations in Athens.
The shoot also included stadium atmosphere recording during a live AEK match, extending the work beyond standard interview coverage.
Particular attention was given to exterior stadium atmos, used as a creative sound layer to deepen the film’s sense of place and political tension.
The workflow required consistent, dependable execution across both controlled interviews and live documentary conditions.
