Purchase: http://www.der.org/films/my-family-an... Shot over four years, the film shows one specific aspect of migration: family relationships. Thanassakis, a 13-year-old boy, is staying with his grandparents in the Greek village of Ano Ravenia, while his parents stay with his younger brother in Zurich, Switzerland. It was filmed during three periods: winter and summer in the village, and Christmas in Zurich. Because of the closeness which developed between the crew and the family, the documentary often resembles a fiction film; it attempts to understand the family relationships by following and filming moments of daily life, showing their emotional family atmosphere.
