Hi,
I'm currently researching a short film project about Kastellorizo and the immigration from the island to Australia.
I'm looking for stories, and any pictures, letters or other documents that may shed more light on what this experience was like for many.
I know that families were separated for a while whilst money was collected to bring the rest over, perhaps someone kept letters from this period.
My film is in the early stages of development and I'm making a trip to Kastellorizo later this year to research and get a feel for the contemporary side of the island... where I understand now has a large Australian presence.
If anyone has any information or could point me in the right direction for more research material it would be appreciated.
If anyone would like to tell their story or have archival materials that could be used... please contact me.
