Documentary Film for Sophia Foundation – Mageirevw kai Prosferw
We were commissioned to produce a documentary film for the Sophia Foundation, focusing on their impactful program, Mageirevw kai Prosferw. This initiative aimed to address two critical issues: providing employment for the unemployed and preparing nutritious meals for underprivileged students in schools across Cyprus.
Through this documentary, we captured the heart of the program, highlighting how it empowered individuals by giving them meaningful work while supporting students who face food insecurity. The film delves into the daily operations of the program, showcasing the dedication of the people involved and the positive impact it had on the community.
Challenges & Approach
Our approach was to document the real stories of those affected by Mageirevw kai Prosferw—both the workers who found hope through employment and the students who benefited from the meals. Filming in schools and kitchens, we aimed to create a narrative that reflected the human side of the initiative, bringing attention to the importance of social programs in battling both unemployment and poverty.
The Result
The documentary successfully showcased the Sophia Foundation’s remarkable efforts to address social issues through innovative solutions. It received praise for its emotional depth and storytelling, helping to raise awareness of the importance of community-driven programs like Mageirevw kai Prosferw.
