Barcelona
2004 · A single frame from the Antenna documentary on post-Olympic Barcelona, the on-screen graphic «η επόμενη μέρα» burnt into the picture.
In 2004, a few months before the Olympic Games opened in Athens, Argyris Dinopoulos went to Barcelona — which had staged the Games of 1992 — and made a "prophetic" documentary for Antenna.
The reporting asked what use Barcelona had made of what the Olympics built there, across the twelve years that had passed by then.
The comparison with what happened in Athens after 2004 proved, in the years that followed, telling.
