Για τα Πανηγύρια - H Νύχτα των Στοιχειών στην Άμφισσα

This documentary explores the traditional "Night of the Elements" festival in Amfissa, Greece, focusing on the myth of Konstantis and Leni, and the creation of the massive, handmade "elements" (monsters) that are paraded during the event. It features interviews with Panagiotis Merenopoulos, president of the Poetic Center of Phocis, and Nikos Loupakos, deputy mayor of Amfissa, who explain the historical roots tied to the tanners of Chármena and the legend of Konstantis, a tanner who died tragically and now protects the craft. The video shows the meticulous construction of these creatures using foam and polystyrene in the municipal workshop, highlighting the physical challenge for the "Bastazos" — the person carrying the heavy figure — and the community's deep cultural connection to this 30-year-old tradition.
