Acclaimed Greek journalist Maya Tsoclis narrates and presents a new ERT documentary series about the Greek expat community in the United States.

The “traveling” documentary series team, comprised of seasoned journalist Maya Tsoclis and director Chronis Pechlivanidis, go on the road around the world, following the routes of the Greek Diaspora.

The first episode, featuring a look at New York City’s thriving Greek American community, aired on Greek television and is also available to watch on the ERT FLIX website here.

With a tender and objective gaze, they register contemporary Hellenism and meet representatives of the Greek community who recount essential chapters of contemporary Greek history through their personal, family narratives.

The series “Routes of the Greek Diaspora” and its creators aspire to give viewers a clear picture of both the history and the great currents of mass immigration that led hundreds of thousands of Greeks to America, highlighting the great significance of the Greek Diaspora communities for Hellenism.

The historical advisor of the series is the prolific writer, historian and educator Dr. Alexander Kitroeff, a specialist in Greek Diaspora issues.
