Documentary screening "The Mourning Rock"

Documentary screening "The Mourning Rock"

Documentary about Elefsina. The past and the present in stark contrast, coexist in a place polluted by modern industry, which hosted the Eleusinian Mysteries, the rites that initiated the ancient Greeks into the miracle of life and the alternation with death. The goddess Demeter sat on the ageless stone when she sought Persephone. In Eleusis, the city of the ancient Mystics. Eleusis is in the west, a sacred place, a point and boundary to see the world around one as much as one sees oneself.
