Research-based performance on female resistance contemporary and past: through long-term research and collaboration with the local community and focused on the history of heroic resistance by women from Tavros during the German Occupation.

Athena Hatziesmer, was born in 1927 in Tavros, the daughter of a family of refugees from Asia Minor. As a teenager, she becomes heavily involved in the Resistance, and following a betrayal is arrested and taken to jail where she despite being tortured, refuses to give in her comrades. At the tender age of 17, on the 2nd of October 1944, about to be executed, she refuses to have her eyes tied. A few days later the occupying forces leave Athens.

79 years after the execution of Athena Hatziesmer, a school student, writes two letters in a literary blog, in an attempt to speak about all those things that the former students never had a chance to say.

Athinoula is a performance in honor of Athina Hatziesmer and 57 more women from Tavros involved in the Resistance, as well as a commentary on presence in public memory and various forms of aesthetic strategies of remembrance.
