It's All Greek to Me is an animated documentary series consisted of 12 episodes, 25 minutes each. Every episode will be narrated and fully animated with a paper cut out, collage aesthetic, in order to give a different and fresh perspective to the history oriented series. The historical research brought up enough material and interesting hidden sides, to excite the viewer's interest for history beyond the already known facts. In every episode a Greek personality is explored, from ancient times until modern era. The common ground between all of them is the remarkable achievements they have done to the world or Greece, but have been forgotten. Kapodistrias is an national figure, well known to all greeks and responsible for the independence of Greece and other countries. Kalliroi Parren returned to her country to become a journalist and publisher of the very first greek female newspaper, aiming to change the patriarchal status quo. Agnodiki was the first woman who studied medicine in ancient Athens around the 3rd century B.C., disguised as a man. This historical figures and many more, changed the perspective we have for the world with their own unique way.
