Tracing Moments 2026

Synopsis

A chronicle of Lefkada in 1960, documented through archival material by a member of a Swiss humanitarian organization, whose work constitutes photographic anthropology. The spontaneous images became windows into moments and relationships of people who, in a harsh environment, gave their best. Through them, coexistence, survival, dignity, and culture are recorded as a heritage. The island in Western Greece serves as a reflection of a shared experience in mountainous and semi-mountainous areas of the country and brings to life an era that will never return.
