Το ντοκιμαντέρ αυτό δημιουργήθηκε το 2019 αλλά δεν βγήκε στην αγορά και έτσι αποφασίστηκε να γίνει ένα εξ αρχής remake και να προωθηθεί στην παγκόσμια κινηματογραφική αγορά. Θα πρέπει να σημειωθεί ότι από το 1960 μέχρι το 1965 σπούδασε με υποτροφία στην Ανωτάτη Σχολή Καλών Τεχνών της Αθήνας όπου είχε καθηγητές τους κορυφαίους γλύπτες Γιάννη Παππά και Νίκο Κερλή,. Σήμερα ο Θεόδωρος Παπαγιάννης θεωρείται ο μεγαλύτερος Έλληνας και ένας από τους κορυφαίους γλύπτες του κόσμου, με τεράστιο διδακτικό έργο, δεκάδες κρατικά βραβεία με κορυφαίο το βραβείο της Ακαδημίας Αθηνών, εκατοντάδες εκθέσεις στην Ελλάδα και το εξωτερικό, σημαντική βιβλιογραφία και τέλος έχει ιδρύσει το μουσείο σύγχρονης τέχνης στον τόπο της γέννησης του το Ελληνικό Ιωαννίνων, που το επισκέπτονται δεκάδες χιλιάδες επισκέπτες κάθε χρόνο. Όλα αυτά ήταν που μας οδήγησαν, ώστε να δημιουργήσουμε αυτό το έργο.

This documentary was created in 2019 but was not released to the market, nor did it take part in any competitive festival, so it was decided to make a remake from scratch and promote it to the global cinema market. It should be noted that from 1960 to 1965 he studied with a scholarship at the Athens School of Fine Arts where he had the leading sculptors Giannis Pappa and Nikos Kerlis as teachers. Today, Theodoros Papagiannis is considered the greatest Greek and one of the leading sculptors in the world, with a huge educational work, dozens of state awards, the most prominent of which is the prize of the Academy of Athens, hundreds of exhibitions in Greece and abroad, an important bibliography and finally he has founded the museum of modern of art in the place of its birth, Elliniko Ioannina, which is visited by tens of thousands of visitors every year. All this was what led us to create this project.
