1922 (1978)

Inspired by Greek novelist Ilias Venezis' book "The Number 31328", Nikos Koundouros depicts the Asia Minor Disaster, as seen through the eyes of three central characters who have failed to embark on ships bound for Greece: the wife of a merchant, a teacher, and a seventeen-year-old youth. The dramatic consequences of the Destruction of Smyrna and the Genocide of the Greeks in Turkey are portrayed through the agonising ordeals of the Asia Minor Greeks, who had been arrested and led to meet their end by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk's troops and armed-to-the-teeth groups of Muslims.
