Easter for the Dead (2015)

One day after Easter Sunday, the residents of the village of Tilisos in Crete, Greece gather at the local cemetery in order to place their food on the family graves. The eat and drink along with their belated ones while they are not allowed to take back any of the food or drinks back home since it must be given to the poor. Although this custom goes back to the Minoan era, it has been embraced by the church as well. On a typical Monday when this custom takes place ,we are watching people's reactions which vary from mourning to celebrating mood.
