2021 is a milestone for our homeland, Thrace, as it celebrates 100 years after its incorporation into the national backbone after 550 years of slavery under the Turkish yoke. The moment coincides with two more important historical events: 200 years after the start of the Greek Revolution, but also after the massacre at the island of Samothrace, the first one that took place in our war-torn fatherland on September 1, 1821.

On this triple anniversary over the unification, we would like to unveil the true history of our region and to narrate it through the production of a historical film; The big screen feature will bring to life the rise of Thrace in 1821 along with the rest of Hellenism, the massacre of Samothrace, and the staggering story of the Five New Martyrs, originating from this island. This is an original testimony, a heroic and confessional event that took place in Samothrace as well as in Makri, Alexandroupoli, over 200 years ago. Under the auspices of the Metropolitan of Alexandroupolis, Trajanoupolis, and Samothrace, Anthimos, and with the help of the Samothracians' Association of the Evros prefecture, the filming of the movie will take place in the places of origin and martyrdom of the five Saints, but also in the greater region of Thrace.

The project is courageous.We have already raised a significant financial amount but it is not enough. In order to achieve a remarkable outcome, everyone's contribution is necessary. Thus, we ask you to join us in supporting this effort and contributing financially to the best of your abilities.

We can make it all together!

I Participate – I Support.

Sincerely,

 Την καταστροφή της Σαμοθράκης την απεικόνισε ο Γάλλος Αύγουστος Βινσόν (Αuguste Vinchon) σε έναν πίνακα με θέμα τη σφαγή της Σαμοθράκης, το 1827 ("Après le massacre de Samothrace"), που βρίσκεται στο Λούβρο.
