There was a long and slow rise and fall in Greek film. A big defeat for the country in 1922 made it fight for a long time to figure out how to move forward.

Despite the hatred and apathy of its main enemy, Greece, it rebuilt its distribution network and technological infrastructure during the war and then went on to increase after 1944.
