Pontos (film)

Pontos is a 2008 dramatic short film concerning the Pontian/Hellenic Genocide. The film's duration is a little over 10 minutes and was filmed entirely in Australia. Written, Produced and Directed by Peter Stefanidis, Pontos aims to capture a small part of the genocide from the perspective of its two central characters played by Lee Mason (Kemal) and Ross Black (Pantzo). In 2008, Pontos was screened at the short film corner at the Festival De Cannes film festival to critical acclaim on the 19th of May (the day of commemoration for the Pontian Genocide).
