I had never experienced anything like Zagoriwood. I cannot wait to come back!

Eric Knudsen
Director, Professor at the University of Central Lancashire

"It was at Zagoriwood where I watched my film "The Enemy Within" in front of an audience for the first time. It was truly an amazing night."

Yorgos Tsemperopoulos
Director

I was witnessing, amazed, the excitement with which some students made their first steps into filmmaking. I felt nostalgic for my own first steps, I was envious of their passion and innocence.

NIKOS PANAGIOTOPOULOS
Author & Screenwriter

So many people, teachers and students, work together and simultaneously in beautiful Zagoria. One experience, one company, just like cinema!

Marissa Triantafillidi
Actor

Zagoriwood was the embodiment of free-spirited teamwork and showed us how a filmmaking workshop can work in the best and most natural way.
