Tasos Pafralides and his sister Evdokia run a business selling heating oil to their fellow citizens in Thessaloniki. With the crisis ever deepening, fewer and fewer Greeks can afford to buy oil and keep themselves warm. Therefore Tasos and Evdokia face a sharp dilemma every day: should they really refuse heating oil to people who don't have the money, leaving them in the cold? As their customers struggle to make ends meet, Tasos and Evdokia struggle to keep their business going. In their daily encounters and in the whole of Greek society, relationships between the people are at stake. How warm or cold can relationships between people be when a deep crisis forces everyone to fend for themselves?

Forgive Me My Debts

She used to host music shows on Dutch TV, but now she’s the figurehead of the political party BIJ1 ("Together"). As a woman of color who was born in Suriname but grew up in the Netherlands, she knows how it feels to be treated as a minority. Her outspoken style in fighting for a world in which everyone has equal rights and opportunities sometimes provokes extreme reactions, and her attackers have posted sinister death-threat videos on YouTube. We follow her in the three months leading up to the local elections, in which she's running for the Amsterdam City Council. During TV debates, interviews and discussions with opponents, we see Simons standing up for her opinions with a fascinating force of argument. But when she’s on her therapist's couch or at home in front of her well-filled walk-in closet, she shows her vulnerable side.
