"DESIRE FOR FREEDOM" - The Greek Revolution "came to life" on buildings of 18 cities throughout Greece.
On Saturday, June 12, and Sunday, June 13, 2021, the Greek Revolution "came to life" throughout Greece as a major event of the "Greece 2021" Committee.

The narrative of the Revolution in a digital application, too.
