Overview

September 2018, a terrible assassination takes place in the center of Athens. Zak Kostopoulos, human rights activist and drag queen, is killed in the middle of the day in a busy street. At that moment, Sophia Farantatou is preparing a film about Zak who is her childhood friend. She decides to confront his absence and make this film as a tribute to her friend, a victim of extremism and hatred on a daily basis. With the images at her disposal, she proposes a narrative highlighting the qualities of Zak, a recognized activist and an artist who, beyond his absence, continues to influence her life.
