Description
Livadia is a town in central Greece. It is the capital of the Boeotia regional district.

The film begins with a group of friends and relatives who will travel for the Easter Holidays in Livadia. We see shots from the tolls, car queues, buses, motorcycles. Just after that, we see shots from inside the car, of the entrance to the town of Livadia where a huge red egg is placed, by the Municipality of Livadeia, on which the wish "Happy Easter" is written.

Then we are at the springs of Krya, we see a stone bridge, swans in the lakes that are created by the running water coming from the river Erkyna, from where the city is supplied until today. We see a shot of the stone-built church of Saints Anargyroi as well as travellers that are headed to the historic cafe Xenia. Again, shots of the lush landscape of age-old plane trees, some small and bigger waterfalls, stone bridges.

A small church looks like that is wedged in the rock.

The group of friends eat their Easter Holiday meal in a tavern, beers, wines, conversations with the river waters visible in the background.

People descend from Krya and head towards the town’s center where we watch that there’s a lot of traffic of vehicles and pedestrians.

Lastly, a panoramic shot of Livadia and the group of friends start to board on the cars to continue their journey or return back to Athens.
