COMPLETE SCREENPLAY SCRIPT – Penitenciarul Timisoara EN

Podplay produced by Roma youngsters in Greece. The PodPlay is in Greek
since not all participants were fluent in English and it is easier for them to express themselves in their mother tongue.

Scene 1

Hanna and Sebastian decided to come in the Greek islands for vacation and to escape from the pressure of Hanna’s family as well. They fall in love at school and they shared the same passion for dancing. Sebastian had Greek roots from his father and he also wanted to visit his country. The couple described Greece as a beautiful country, full of friendly locals and also the place where they found freedom. They had the best time of their life in Greece but Hanna never stopped thinking about her parent’s reaction and desires regarding her life.

Scene 2

The most important place during their vacation was Santorini where they had a really great time. One day they saw an old couple sitting hand by hand and they got emotional. Sebastian approached them and asked them how they can be so in love till now. The old man answered him that he fell in love with the way that her wife was approaching the life. She knew what she loved and she was always chasing it. Sebastian from the first time that he saw Hanna he confessed his love and said that he wanted to stay with her forever. Hanna during the narration of the old man she was thinking how much pressured she was from her family. One night in the island she disappeared and Sebastian was searching for here many hours. Eventually he found her crying and tried to calm her. At the same time they had been robbed and they did not have money to go back to Sweden and so they decided to go to Thessaloniki with the less money that they had. When they arrived they started dancing in the street and gain the attention of the locals that were enjoying them and giving them some money. The couple was having so much fun that they did not notice the crowd that was around them. They were both feeling so free and bonded to each other. During that time a famous Greek choreographer saw Hanna and purposed her to join his dancing team. Hanna saw her dreams coming true but she was thinking about her parents who were helping her all these years financially and also her love for Sebastian. Sebastian embraced her choice to stay in Thessaloniki as he only wanted for her to be happy and he left for Sweden.

Scene n+1

Hanna stayed in Thessaloniki and she took part in many competitions, fulfilling her life dream. Sebastian continued with his dancing school in Sweden but he was never satisfied as he was still thinking of Hanna. One day, Hanna before getting on the stage she had a strange feeling like something was concerning her. She was dancing when she saw two familiar faces in the audience but she thought that it was her imagination. Then she went to the backstage in her room when suddenly someone knocked her door. She opened it and surprisingly she saw her parents that had been before in the crowd for real. Hanna was expecting her parents to be angry but her mother hugged her immediately and she felt relieved. They were talking for many hours about Hanna’s choices and they finally, accepted them. Sebastian had the chance to dance in a competition in Greece where his path led him to her last love Hanna. They met again in the stage and as Sebastian confessed, it was like he was meeting her for the first time again. They got back together through the power of love. Both of them learnt that everyone should follow her or his dreams regardless to what others demand from them.
