Since the dawn of History civilization evolves, passes through one generation to another and eventually gets
inscribed into humans DNA. Moral values, customs and cultures of every civilization along with its identity which is
defined by race, religion, language and nationality, eventually give a name and a character such as Greek, Roman
etc. But when a civilization diffuses to many places, its identity becomes universal. This is exactly the event we are
experiencing nowadays.
To this universal culture, International Documentary Festival of Ierapetra (IDFI), in its 4th edition (5th to 9th
August), is devoted this year.In this way, Ierapetra, the crossroad of Civilization and Continents will become the
meeting place of all people travelling from the extremities of the world to participate to Festivals events. Though the
qualifying process of 1353 applications, 157 documentaries were selected to feature the places of People. These films
have as starting point, other than Minoan Crete, the first Great Civilization of the World, cultures of most people and
places on the Earth.
This year, cultural attachs from many countries of the World will attend the festival along with distinguished
directors and audience and 72 young Greeks from Abroad screening 12 short film documentaries. Also, IDFI will
accommodate artistic directors from other Greek Documentary Festivals amplifying our cultural bonds. For this
reinforcement, as well for the advancement of the cultural reality of local and European Communities, IDFI has been
assigned the European Identity EFFE 2017- 2018 (Europe for Festivals, Festivals for Europe of the European Festival
Association). IDFI has also the honor, this year, to welcome China Dream which is a spectacular coordination of our
Festival with the 9 largest International Festivals of China. It is a cultural exchange of the civilization of images
between the two Countries Festivals which opens new horizons for IDFI which already travels to all the world.

Equally important for us is the fact that for another year IDFI innovates giving opportunity to young directors
15-25 years old, to acquire their own artistic presence at the film world. Also, as each year, documentary screenings
and side events will be hosted in many cities of Lassithi Prefecture, highlighting the culture of images deep into
society.
To these screenings I invite you as Artistic Director of the Festival, to become audience and protagonists at
the opening ceremony on Saturday August 5th, 21.00 and closing ceremony on Wednesday 9th, 21.00 at Ierapetra City
Hall Square.

As in each year, organizing IDFI is a result of labor and devotion on one hand, but on the other hand of great
expectation and hopefulness. In both, the assistance of friends and cooperates has been proved and continues to be
proved every day, priceless. They share with us their labor, experience, prestige and their honorary presence.
This year, the Festival is honored to have as jury the artistic Director of Thessaloniki Documentary Festival,
Orestis Andreadakis, the writer, director and editor Ioannis Soldatos, the Professor of Direction Antonis Kokkinos, the
Head of ERT Greek Program Menios Deliotzakis, the Professor of Linguistics in the University of Athens Christoforos
Charalambakis and Dr Nissim Gal, Lecturer in History, Civilization and Film Studies in the University of Tel Aviv. Film
Reviewer Kostas Konstantinidis, Director Nikol Alexandropoulou and Christos Solomos, actor and script writer,
participate in the qualifying committee.
The General Secretary for Greeks Abroad of Ministry of Foreign Affairs Dimitris Plevrakis, the Vice Governor
of Crete Region Pelagia Petrakis, the artistic Director of Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival Orestis
Andreadakis and the artistic Director of Chalkis Greek Documentary Festival Stavros Ioannou, will address the
Opening Ceremony.
The Festival will open with the screening, as a noncompeting film, of Helene Vlassiss Olive Roads on 5 th of
August 21.00 at the City Hall Central Square. This film will make an historical flash back and parallelism between the
life of ancient Minoans and modern Cretans through the Roads of Olive. With the very ancient (5000 years old) olive
tree of Sacred Kouvousi Grove as focus, it will reconstruct life in Greece through Antiquity till Modern Times.
I wish best viewing to all
