  • At the height of her career, in one of her final interviews, Sofia Vembo looks back on her life. Deeply moved, she recounts events both joyful and painful, ordinary and momentous, that left their mark on her. For the first time, she shares unexpected episodes from her life, recalling people, performances, happy moments and romantic encounters, while revealing historical events in a heartfelt account. Accompanied by an accordion, she weaves into her moving narrative the songs that shaped her career, telling the story behind each one. She reminisces with joy and emotion, performing her greatest hits in her own inimitable style. Her beginnings, the war of 1940 and her experiences during the Polytechnic uprising are among the episodes recounted by this Greek heroine. A play that brings history to life through personal testimony and live performances of songs from the era.
