My Rembetika Blues - a film about love, life and Greek Music (Thu 23 Jun, 6:30PM-8:30pm)

Join us for a special Q&A screening of MY REMBETIKA BLUES, a powerful documentary on music and culture featuring director M. Zournazi in attendance.

MY REMBETIKA BLUES

Rembetika music or the Greek blues is a music born of exile and the streets. Developing its roots from the mass migration of people in the early twentieth century, filmmaker M. Zournazi traces the journey of her forebears from Smyrna in Turkey to Sydney Australia but discovers more than family history, she finds out how music connects people during times of struggle and crises. By weaving together different stories of music and migration, she documents experiences that are often left out of the chronicles of history.
