FOREWORD

This work surveys the general work of the directors of short and feature documenteries and short movies in Hellas from 1900 to 2000. It considers not only the films themselves, but with a small biography for the ones that was available. While there is rather meager supply of sources in United States, we have been fortunate enough to discover and use some important texts and sources of information. In this work, we have tried, to the best of our knowledge, to research the scattered information and to put them in chronological order. We use in our work only movies that they are produced in 35 mm, 16mm or supper 16 mm. If we have listed any video production in the movie index we apologize. During the first five decades of the 20th century there was a minimal effort to produce short or feature documentaries in Hellas. The only exceptions were the "Newsreels" of the Balkan War (1912-1913), (1917-1918), and Asia Minor War (1919-1922) by cameramen Joseph Hepp, Demetris Gaziadis, Giorgos Prokopiou, Demetris Meravidis, Gavrilis Longos. During World War II (1941-1944) and the Civil War (1946-1949) certain events were recorder by cameramen Joseph Hepp, Prodromos Meravidis, and Filopoimin Finos. The pioneer in that form was, Charilaos Mavrogenis who in 1911 made a serious effort to produce what are known today as documentaries. He tried to produce the first scientific documentary that dealt with insects and reptiles. The next pioneer was Achilleas Madras who in 1922 produced the documentary Oi Prosfiges Tou Polemou (The Refugees of the War). Other writers give the title The Exodos of Refugees. It presents the oppression of by the Ottomans in the cities and towns of , West Thrace, and . It took many years for Greek producers, directors, scriptwriters and the government to realize the importance of documentaries (short or feature). The crucial steps were the establishment of the Film Festival in 1960, the establishment in the city of Drama festival in 1978 specializing in short movies and documentaries only, and the financial subsidies by the Ministry of Culture through the Greek Film Center. The arrival of television gave a new impetus to the production of short movies and documentaries. After 1960 the production of short movies and documentaries increased yearly to the point where there was an overproduction of this genre in comparison to Greek speaking population. There was also an abundance of video productions, which we do not deal with here since we limit ourselves only to 35 and 16 mm.

Trifon Tzavalas

The only son of Panayiotis and Sophia Tzavalas, Trifon was born in Athens in 1935. After graduating from the 8th Gymnasium for Boys, he enlisted in the Greek Air Force for his military service. Once out of the service, he worked next to the great film directors Giorgos Tzavelas and Vassilis Georgiadis who produced some of the classic films during the golden age of Greek cinema in the 50's and 60's.

Then Trifon decided he needed more film training and went to Germany, then to Montreal, and finally to Hollywood where his father's brother, William Chavalas, was the artistic director at 20th Century Fox designing film sets and movie theaters. W. Chavalas designed and decorated some of the finest movie theaters built in Los Angeles in the 1940's and 1950's. One of his monumental works is the Byzantine art of the church of Saint Sophia Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, just before Trifon arrived in Los Angeles, his uncle suddenly died. In those early days, Trifon struggled to make a living while studying film direction at Columbia College. As a thesis project, he researched and wrote "The History of Greek Cinema". That thesis germinated into the 6- volume encyclopedic work, The History of Greek Cinema, which is now in this website. It took him practically the rest of his life to assemble the information for this publication. In the meantime, for relaxation, he wrote poems (a selection is included here). He and his wife Maureen raised one son, Panayiotis, and dote on their three grandchildren: Sophia and the twins Triphon and Talia.

Due to his untimely illness, which to a great extent paralyzed Trifon in 2008, his friend Takis Demopoulos undertook the effort to edit and complete the publication. Zafiris Gourgouliatos assisted with the publication and web presentation. This electronic version of the book is published by the Hellenic University Club of Southern California, a Non- Profit Cultural Organization.
