Αυτή την Κυριακή βλέπουμε μια από τις πιο όμορφες εκπλήξεις του φετινού σινεμά: **«Η τούρτα του Προέδρου»** του Χασάν Χάντι. Ιράκ, 1990. Μια εννιάχρονη μαθήτρια επιλέγεται από το σχολείο της για μια… “τιμητική” αποστολή: να φτιάξει την τούρτα γενεθλίων για τον ίδιο τον Σαντάμ Χουσεΐν. Μόνο που υπάρχει ένα μικρό πρόβλημα: στη χώρα λείπουν ακόμη και τα πιο βασικά υλικά. Και έτσι ξεκινά μια μικρή οδύσσεια μέσα στην πόλη — γεμάτη απρόσμενες συναντήσεις, χιούμορ, συγκίνηση και εκείνη την τρυφερή ανθρωπιά που θυμίζει το καλύτερο ιρανικό σινεμά. Μια ιστορία απλή αλλά βαθιά συγκινητική, όπου η παιδική αθωότητα γίνεται μια μικρή πράξη αντίστασης απέναντι σε έναν σκληρό κόσμο. 🏆 **Χρυσή Κάμερα – Φεστιβάλ Καννών 2025** 🏆 **Βραβείο Κοινού – Δεκαπενθήμερο Σκηνοθετών (Cannes)** 🏆 **Βραβείο Κοινού – Νύχτες Πρεμιέρας** ✨ Από εκείνες τις ταινίες που σε κάνουν να χαμογελάς, να συγκινείσαι και μετά να θέλεις να την συζητήσεις. 🍷 Μετά την προβολή, συνεχίζουμε με ποτό και κουβέντα. **Κυριακή \| 19:45** Μπορείτε να κλείσετε τα εισιτήρια σας εδώ : https://www.more.com/gr-el/tickets/cinema/presidents-cake-cinobo-opera/?evId=885644 Έλα στην παρέα — οι καλύτερες ταινίες βλέπονται μαζί. ‼️**Παρακαλούμε θερμά:** Αν δηλώσεις συμμετοχή και τελικά δεν μπορείς να έρθεις, **φρόντισε να ακυρώσεις εγκαίρως** — μας βοηθά πολύ στον καλύτερο συντονισμό και την οργάνωση της βραδιάς. Συνήθως έρχομαι αργοπορημένη στα events που διοργανώνω!!! οπότε μπείτε , καθίστε και θα συναντηθούμε στο τέλος της προβολής στο ταμείο του κινηματογράφου!!

Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 11:00 - quick intros. 11:15 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 12:15 - (the end) chat / take off / keep writing / socialising. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you at To Theatron! What Should I Bring? Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Ideally come with your laptop fully charged in case there are not enough plugs for everyone. Other Important Details: -Theatron is close to the newly-opened metro station Dimotiko Theatro. The tram also stops right outside, and there are several bus stops nearby. -There is a parking service nearby on Kountouriotou 137 if you are unable to find a parking space. -Please thank our hosts by purchasing something.
