Those Who Touched War
Michalis Kastanidis · 2026
· 73min · EL · subs: EN
Four former workers guide us through the abandoned PYRKAL ammunition factory, where a dangerous decontamination effort uncovers explosives still buried in the soil. Through their memories and reflections, the film explores their craftsmanship, the human cost of their work, and the moral complexities of manufacturing weapons.
Cindy says
Kastanidis crafts a quietly devastating portrait of complicity and craft, letting former workers speak their contradictions without judgment. The abandoned factory becomes a meditation on how we rationalize labor, especially when that labor fuels violence—intimate, unflinching, and deeply human.
