On Sunday, February 22, TO VIMA will provide its readers with a unique collector's edition regarding one of the most discussed cinematic events in recent years: 'Kapodistrias - The Movie's Script.' Directed by Giannis Smaragdis, the film has already made history in the Greek cinematic landscape, achieving over 760,000 ticket sales in less than two months. This remarkable success has turned it into a phenomenon of the 2025-2026 cinematic season, generating intense debates and deep divisions among audiences even before its official release on Christmas of 2025.

The story revolves around Ioannis Kapodistrias, a historical figure who continues to evoke strong emotions in Greece. The film chronicles his journey from the post-1821 Revolution period until his assassination on September 27, 1831. It reveals the true story of Greece's first Governor, a man tasked with laying the foundations of a newly liberated state from Ottoman rule. This exploration not only highlights his governance but also delves into the complexity of his legacy, which remains contentious in contemporary discussions about Greek history.

As the film approaches its release, public discourse is likely to intensify, with supporters and critics alike voicing their opinions about its portrayal of historical events and figures. The release of this collector's edition by TO VIMA is a notable event in itself, indicating the film's cultural significance and the ongoing relevance of Kapodistrias in Greek national identity and conversations about governance and history.
