Hadetia (which means folk customs in the local dialect) explores the acoustic landscape of bell rituals in Drama, Northern Greece and invites the viewers into a space where the resonant bells dominate the area. Acting as a sensory mediation between sound, place and time, it reveals a connection of cultural continuity and collective memory.
