The true story of the greatest Greek author of the 20th century, Nikos Kazantzakis, based on his autobiography “Report to Greco”. It is his existential search around the world to implementing the ideas of Christ and Buddha in real life; and through his hero, Odysseus, he realizes his philosophy of the Cretan Glance: “Life is a bumpy road and one must walk it with dignity and bravery”. Staying true to his values, he faces his persecutors with self-control and dignity, and completes his work, which is to cherish man’s freedom, the values of life and the Greek Light.
