Onassis Channel | Clean Cities by Marina Danezi, Kostas Mandilas, Constantinos Hadzinikolaou and Christos Sarris

Who cleans the world’s cities? And why are they mainly women and immigrants? Onassis Stegi’s well-traveled production “Clean City” has prompted a hybrid film. Four different directors follow the work as it tours four cities: Skopje, Sarajevo, Montpellier, and Istanbul. Female immigrants and cleaners – the work’s lead performers, and other women too – tell their life stories, and talk about the prejudice inherent in notions of cleanliness and purity, and the dangers of fascism, about women’s migration, and sexual assault. An anthology film on the border between documentary and fiction that springs from the filmed theater production by Anestis Azas and Prodromos Tsinikoris. The film was selected at Athens International Film Festival "Opening Nights" 2021 and Thessaloniki International Film Festival 2022.
