The Island of Rhodes Floating in the Aegean Sea
Colour short film produced by the Greek National Tourism Organisation (GNTO), presenting Rhodes, Kos, and Symi. The narration accompanies the camera’s journey from Athens to the medieval walls of Rhodes Old Town, the acropoleis of Lindos and Ialysos, and the historic attractions of the neighbouring islands. At the same time, the film showcases modern hotel facilities, beaches, local gastronomy, traditional dances, and the activities of local residents. The film portrays the Dodecanese as a destination where history, tradition, and the tourism environment combine to create a distinctive identity.
