AVvXsEjAtYfSncfNhtDh35XPTa8NNTaivw1YoL76CbBkZXFmtfChQhLATIVLyklh-NE9_EYJaQ1D_Jk-IYng04opW7fyw9RV21dAt0fulb48cZxWgnd1J0uWwIV_xe4X9UQYthtazbUG_M7HRAyiShofyP8omi-yIO3rVCzd1E43iGrXN8c1sgkC312P2PeO
Director: Paola Revenioti
Release Year: 2021
Original title: Oi pikrodafnes

Paola Revenioti, Eva Koumarianou, and Betty Vakalidou, now in their 60s, have known each other for more than forty years. They started making their living early in their youth as sex workers in Athens, Greece. In the documentary, they revisit all the different places in the city where they used to work, socialize, get harassed or arrested by the police, fight for their rights, have fun and find love. Their unapologetic, humorous, and empowering discussion gives rise to the discussion about the history of transgender women in Greece.
