Train stations, sleep, memories, Orestis' forefathers, a gaida’s tone, witnesses to civil war, the patter of snow on mount Falakro, uproar at the Nestos delta, bear tracks, roadside stories, all fragments, all a pilgrimage, all verses from Theodoris’ song. Director's statement I offer my memories of mount Falakro in a film shot 10 years ago as a diary of a journey. This journey to the regions of Macedonia and Thrace in northern Greece was made for environmental purposes. Theodoris, a map designer and Orestis head of the Arctouros environmental centre for the protection of bears, based in Xanthi, led me over and through the mountain for the course of those six days. But what remains, preserved in the film, is a pilgrimage, recalled with difficultly as in a dream, or rather an emotion, released through a song.
