The Luthier

LΟGLINE

A Greek luthier from a small village in Serres, renowned for crafting some of the finest flamenco guitars in the world, dreams of creating the first international flamenco music festival in his hometown. With the support of his artist friends, he embarks on a journey to turn his dream into reality.

SYNOPSIS

How paradoxical does it sound that some of the world’s best flamenco guitars are made in a small village in Serres by a Greek luthier?

Even more so, that this very man envisions a grand music festival in a place where flamenco is virtually unknown?

The isolation of rural Greece, combined with the unique and often solitary daily life of a musical instrument maker, shapes a fascinating reality—one that surprises through its sheer simplicity.

This is a portrait that balances between solitude, creativity, and the small pleasures of village life, ultimately achieving global recognition.

A documentary infused with elements of fiction and historical insights, transporting us into the world of flamenco. As we journey from the Greek countryside to international cities and back again, we witness the fusion of cultures and musical traditions.

The passion of the luthier and his friends will be the driving force that helps them overcome every obstacle and turn their dream into reality.
