The 9th annual Atlanta Greek Film Expo will showcase five critically acclaimed Greek feature films (all with English subtitles) and four short films on October 25–27 at the iconic Tara Theatre on Cheshire Bridge Road.
With the goal of elevating and promoting Hellenic (Greek) culture and arts in Atlanta, the annual expo showcases some of the most dynamic, innovative and highly acclaimed films from Greece and Cypress.
One of the films showing at this year’s event, Murderess, is Greece’s submission for Best International Feature Film at the 97th Annual Academy Awards (which will air in 2025).
Free parking will be available at the venue each day of the expo. And the three-day event concludes with an open-to-the-public, celebratory closing reception at the Hellenic Center, located at 2500 Clairmont Road, NE.
