KORALY DIMITRIADIS
Grandmothers
Koraly Dimitriadis presents a poetic montage of life during lockdown in Melbourne, Australia, during one of the most strictest lockdowns in the world. Mourning the recent death of her grandmother in Cyprus without being able to spend time with her family, longing to be back in Cyprus, she is also reminded of the death of her other grandmother who passed away almost a decade ago. Filmed in September 2020.
Koraly Dimitriadis is the author of Just Give Me The Pills and Love and F--k Poems (which has also been translated into Greek). These poetic works form the basis of her theatre show "I say the wrong things all the time”. She also makes films of her poems. She is a freelance opinion writer who has been published widely across the Australian media, with international publications in The Washington Post. She was the recipient of the UNESCO City of Literature residency (Krakow) in 2019 for her debut fiction manuscript, Divided Island.
